Firefox Money: Investigating the bizarre finances of Mozilla (lunduke.locals.com)
 

The author may be a right-wing fellow. Nonetheless, the data he exposes are taken from official Mozilla docs.

It's fine but I find mildly irritating the fact that they have removed the tab dividers.

This would imply having an account on something owned by Amazon. No, thanks.

The cryptominer part is just FUD. Learn how it works. And the browser itself is way more private then FF by default.

The CEO was one also of the cofounders of Mozilla. How ironic.

Also, the actual CEO of Mozilla is doing a great job... At increasing her paycheck while firing developers:

Mozilla is one of the most corrupt orgs out there, right now.

What are the hardware rrequirements for a Lemmy instance? (beehaw.org)
 

Hi! I have a 2 cores/2 GB VPS with very light use, right now.

I wonder if these hardware specs would be enough to run a little Lemmy instance (for few users). Would 20 GB of storage be too little for this?

Thanks a lot in advance!

This. Can't really understand YouTube addiction. I'm not exaggerating if I say that I watch, maybe, 2 entire videos per year.
