> So looking at the actual figures, rather than making stuff up out of nowhere, it does not seem to me that you can accuse them for a lack of strategic focus.
$220 millions are the aggregated expenses of ALL software 'development' efforts of Mozilla Corporation like VPN, Relay, Pocket, mozilla.social, etc. And there are a lot of interesting expenses which are billed as development (like MCKENSIE MACK GROUP payments). How much of that went to Firefox nobody knows.
Net assets are growing but user base is shrinking (and of course it was Google and MS who alienated their users in 2016-2018 by introducing a lot of breaking changes and made FF not usable /s). That's why CEO deserves a big fat bonus and raise.
You can't accuse them for a lack of strategic focus, indeed. But what is their strategic focus? Is it filling their pockets with money and living a lavish lifestyle?
What they could do better is move Firefox development into a separate fund and manage it from there. Just like they did with Thunderbird.
