Mental illness isn't diversity, celebrating it as such is pretty wrong.

It's not mental illness. Gender dysphoria is mental illness. Learn the difference.

Hair color and gender/identification are not correlated to technical skill.

I just looked up firefox Picture-In-Picture on youtube and i that is something i will use.

Except that's not really "the upcoming version" of Firefox.

Except that it is: https://www.ghacks.net/2020/01/07/he...droid-upgrade/

"If Firefox Nightly is installed on a device that meets the requirements, it will be upgraded to Firefox Preview "in early 2020". A date has not been set yet and Mozilla does not mention the channel that Nightly users will be migrated to but it is almost certain that they will be migrated to the Nightly version of Firefox Preview.

In Spring 2020, Firefox Beta installations and Firefox Stable installations will be migrated to Firefox Preview if they meet the requirements."

Firefox is a completely dead browser. Their market share is in the single digits now. It just goes to show -- you can't just hire dozens of blue-haired SJWs into software engineering roles and hope they'll produce quality work. Especially not when you're competing with Google.

Funny that you insist on this, I've never really got comfortable with any other browser... ever after the Australis debacle, etc. If anything, uBlock Origin is a reason enough for me to stick to Firefox. It will be dead when you manage to pry it off my cold dead fingers!

Who said anything about "white males"?

Well, you said "They've been hiring based on diversity quotas and Adversity Olympics." So you're trying to tell me that the 75% white male figure in their tech department is all a bunch of "mediocre SJW's"?

Why does all criticism of the forced "diversity" narrative have to be equated with "muh white supremacists, nazis, incels, etc."...?

Because that's all you deserve when you start ranting about "dozens of blue-haired SJWs" bringing down a non-profit company that employs thousands of people..

[DanL]

You're not even trying to be convincing here are you...?

Not to you. You won't be convinced because you are too caught up in the narrative that "diversity" is evil SJW social engineering.

It should be extremely obvious that these 2 things are competing (and conflicting) priorities.

No, it's not obvious to those of us with more than two brain cells to rub together. Hair color and gender/identification are not correlated to technical skill.

Hiring all the trannies and "diverse" people you can find is clearly going to lower engineering standards and prompt the most competent people to move elsewhere.

If you had actually looked at the link, you would see that there are still plenty of white males at Mozilla, especially in tech areas. (You can relax and breathe easy now.)

Seriously brainded, quit while you're behind.

WebOS was the most fiddle-able mobile OS in history.

I was talking about the interface, not the underlying system. I know just how fiddle-able it was, I'm an ex-diehard webOS user. LuneOS continues the tradition

As sad as it is, brainlet_pederson is right (about that their priorities doesnt seem focused on the software), as Mozilla says:

"Two years ago, we embarked on a journey to actively improve our organizational diversity and inclusion globally. Today, we’re sharing details about our demographics and the results of our ongoing efforts."

The quote/link you cite does not support the conclusion that FF prioritizes diversity over good software engineering. It just says that diversity is important to them. Nice try though.

Found the triggered SJW.

Not before we found the triggered incel.

I've just tired QUIC on Firefox-72. It doesn't seem to be working,. even though I have firewall opened for UDP:443 and http3 option enabled in browser.
Test at https://quic.stream/#one still says I'm using plain old https...
