basically since the 90s if you consider netscape, considering firefox was spun of from them
And between the two we had Mozilla Suite (which is what SeaMonkey basically is today)
It was called Firebird in late 2003, and earlier that year it was called Mozilla.
I’m pretty sure it was Phoenix before it was Firebird. They had to change away from both names due to naming conflicts from other projects.
I’ve been here the entire time and I have never been thrilled.
Why did they change this icon?
That really hurts.
It’s the choice of either blocking some extension(s) or getting their whole domains blocked in russia, so mozilla chose the first
I know, but these extensions are essential for circumventing censorship.
This is exactly, what I call “bowing to an autocracy”.
K, that’s why they undid the the temporary change.
Nothing good is about to happen to that mascot suit.
furry
That’s the joke.
Even the fox is looking sad
he really needs a hug
This cake brought to you by Russia.
???
We all knew the enshitification was coming when they put someone from Airbnb in charge. It begins by sucking up to Russia.
They suspended it temporarily while they figured out what to do, then reinstated already.
Is that really necessary here?
Likely cost more than the funding it would have or was bringing in to support Firefox development
That seems kinda sad and pathetic for a celebration.
What would you say if they had a big party with a lot of PR/marketing behind it;
“they’re wasting all this money to have fun instead of making the product better”?Yes, because they just want to shit on stuff.
Most of the money does not go into the browser anyways.
Used by the Kremlin themselves aww .
Also the Firefox suit look fucking depressed .
Ah, you’re here to shit on something you’re out of the loop on
Wait did they go back on it ?
Yes. And as they said they only temporarily suspended it while they figured out what their options were.
But people gotta feed their outrage addictions, I get it.
