So they don't intend on making a profit from it from data gathering, nobody asked for it, and the open source community who would otherwise donate or contributes to Mozilla are so disgusted by the whole thing tgat they are now just holding their noses and waiting for an alternative.

All of this while Google is stepping down as sugar daddy and they need all the help they can get.

Why the hell are they doing this? Is it just a case of moronic leadership and getting stuck in a negative spiral where the whole operation gets stupider and stupider with each new hire?

Well, people were at least asking for translations all the time.

Yeah, I'm honestly happy about local translations, and I was still supporting Mozilla when it was rolled out. There's just been too much bullshit since.
