Please, Mozilla, explain in detail exactly in which way the internet is changing again, that requires you to return to Faschitter? Please help me make sense of this.

Is that a lot?

It's more than one, but less than 6-7.

Cutting off Twitter means losing potential audience. It was an ideological stance when they did it, now nothing ideological is left at MozCorp.

Really what real people.are left on twitter?

Nazis, and people okay with sharing space with nazis.

I know, it's a facetious comment meant to put them on the spot for blaming some sort of "change in the internet (again)".

There's potential users there, and ff isn't going to lose any users by rejoining.

Just lost one now. How many did it gain?

I just can't imagine anyone is going to change to chrome because ff started posting to x.

Because those are the only two browsers in existence...
