"#JamieZawinski has #repeatedly said:

Now hear me out, but What If…? #browser #development was in the hands of some kind of #nonprofit #organization?

In my #humble but #correct #opinion, #Mozilla should be doing two things and two things only:

#Building THE #reference #implementation #WebBrowser and
Being a jugular-#snapping #attack #dog on #standards #committees.
There is no 3."
"Perhaps this is the only #viable #resolution."

"#Mozilla, for all its many #failings, has #invented a lot of #amazing #tech, from #Rust to #Servo to the #leading #budget #phone #OS. It shouldn't be trying to #capitalize on this #stuff. Maybe 3encourage it to have semi-independent #spinoffs, such as #Thunderbird, and as #KaiOS ought to be, and as #Rust could have been."
"But #JamieZawinski has the only #clear #vision and #solution we've seen yet. Perhaps he's #right, and #Mozilla #should be a #nonprofit, #working to #fund the one #independent, non-#vendor-driven, #standardscompliant #browserEngine."

"#Mozilla's management is a #bug, not a #feature"
"#Dominance does not equal #importance, nor is dominance the same as #relevance. The #snag at Mozilla is a #management layer that doesn't appear to understand what works for its #product nor which parts of it matter most to users."
"Don't #blame the #app, and don't even blame the #programmers. That is, the ones who still have #jobs, after years of #engineer #layoffs. Don't even blame the whole #organization – blame the #management. Steven himself has pointed this out before, early in 2024. So have I. In 2023, I said that Mozilla was asleep at the wheel."

Hey nerds, I'm looking for something to replace Excel - and you seem like the folks to ask. Unfortunately for LibreOffice, formatting matters a lot to me. (Among other things it looks like one can't format a table in Calc.)
How do you organize and visualize data?
Does your app/software work offline or sync reliably between devices?
