I think it's a bit naive to think that what Mozilla is lacking is a good CEO. A CEO cannot magically make Firefox the default on Android or have the most visited website in the world shove it down your throat. A CEO alone also cannot improve webgl or webrtc Performance without sacrificing development time on other things. I can't think of any major problems Mozilla has that are caused by or could be solved by upper management, they simply don't have the resources and outreach that google does.

Not sure what to think of this honestly. Like imagine a small email provider decided to block Gmail, that's a death sentence. It's impossible to get people to switch apps when they have to leave behind all of the content and people they used an app to interact with. And let's be honest, threads is going to run at a loss for a long time to grow their userbase before they start pulling weird shit. We need to have a migration path when that happens, and if threads is blocked everywhere, people will lose their content and contacts upon switching, so they won't do it.
