I'm not new to the fediverse, but here's an #introduction focusing on just one project:

http://Ora.Network aims to create a global digital #skillsharing network based on the principles of time banking, #libre software, and the #commons. A #mutualcredit currency where 1 ora is added to your balance for every hour you contribute to a qualified libre/commons project. You can then transfer your ora to someone else in exchange for their help working on your own (non-qualified) project.

There are currently 4 organizations on the planet that build their own browser engine: Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Mozilla. Which one of these is not like the others? That's right, Mozilla is the only browser vendor that isn't a giant tech company that already has lots of money from other sources.

Not saying this excuses installing a rando extension for the sake of a publicity stunt, but I can see why Mozilla might try to find some… creative sources of extra income.

Websites get slower faster than browsers get faster
