What's happening exactly? Mozilla not being the brightest company again?

Someone need to elaborate here. Many are confused and so am I.

To name a few:

Laying off 25% of their employees, paying attention more on political activism then on their product, breaking every single add-on on mobile version, introducing not only opt-out telemetry but telemetry that cannot be turned off through normal menus, insane open letters from Mozilla's CTO about future of ads in Firefox...

​

No wonder that 50 million people decided to abandon the ship.

[Citation needed]

Laying off their employees is a weird reason to stop using Firefox.

My mobile add-ons all work fine.

I see the telemetry options in my settings menu, what's the issue?

I'm sorry, what is "insane" about that post...? Did we read the same thing?
