Mozilla Corporation has named its new CEO in replacing interim CEO Laura Chambers.

Anthony Enzor-DeMeo has been named the new CEO of Mozilla Corporation. Anthony Enzor-DeMeo was SVP of Firefox from 2004 to July 2005 and then from July until now was the GM of Firefox at Mozilla. He's written a public message today in his first day serving as the new chief executive for Mozilla.

Third: Firefox will grow from a browser into a broader ecosystem of trusted software. Firefox will remain our anchor. It will evolve into a modern AI browser and support a portfolio of new and trusted software additions."

Nobody, ever wanted firefox to become modern AI browser, there are like 5 people in the world that even want AI browser. I hope either servo or ladybug will actually make a functioning browser before firefox implodes completely.

    Mozilla is not financially secure.

    Not while they pay their ever-changing string of CEO's millions and their contributors... wait, do they even still have contributors?

    Says I, who's been using nothing else for decades.

    Worst market research ever.

    Does servo accept donations? Are they a non-profit? They could use this to generate some news for themselves and get people excited about a browser built upon their engine.

    At least they're consistent, you gotta give them that much. 😞

    There's also the Ladybird browser that I really, really wanna cheer for. I could easily see it becoming the "saviour" that was Mozilla's role way back when.

    between the crap FF has been pulling and the pressure at work to use a Chrome equivalent (we use a lot of MS products), I am finding it hard to hang on
