They are going through the necessary but deeply painful process of diversifying their income away from Google payments, which is much easier said than done.

Mozillas initially incredible partnership with Google, from which they earn the vast majority of their income, essentially turned toxic once Google started experimenting with Chrome. On that day Google’s favourite browser to support shifted from Firefox to Chrome.

Being financially reliant on your main competitor is a deeply troubling and dysfunctional position to be in.

Regardless of how good it started, its time to move on.
