Translation: business-types are salty about Wikipedia not toeing the line on the fiction that executive pay “needs” to be obscene in order to “attract talent.”
I still think the “low” salary of Wikimedia is obscene.
There is no way even that figure is proportionate to what these people actually do day to day.
700k? For being in charge of one of the biggest websites in history?
That doesn’t seem awful at all.
They don’t like it when real life counters their narrative, and this shows that corporations can pay reasonable salaries to their executives.
Mozilla’s CEO is paid $7m for running the “charity”.
She’s CEO of Mozilla foundation (charity) but also Mozilla corporation (normal business).
So? If that’s what she’s worth then you either hire her, or put up with second best. You may think CEOs are paid too much overall - I’m not disagreeing, but let’s not pretend people who work for charities should all take charity salaries. If you want to build a world class product, hire world class people - they’re not cheap.
I cannot fathom the indignation.
If the first one on the list was so expensive and so counterproductive, I can’t imagine the rest…
What the fuck are you talking about?
The absolute nosedive of firefox’s share, its erratic and pointless development, the waste of money… in fact there are many valid criticisms against mozilla and its mismanagement, take your pick.
In a world set against you, even doing the right thing might not lead to success.
They are deeply dependent on Google; they’ve been trying to find revenue without Google. They’ve largely failed, but that doesn’t mean the strategy is wrong.
In times like this, especially when the original twitter post gets ratio’d to shit, it’s important to evaluate where they’re getting their numbers. I see they post a link to Rumble. I’ve never heard of this before, what is it?
Rumble

“HE’S BACK!!” Musk RESTORES Alex Jones On X…
NEWSMAX2 LIVE on RumbleOh fuck me it’s a right wing nutjob site. This post is fucking dogshit, trashing Wikipedia because it helps counter their propaganda. Fuck that noise.
Happily other people noticed this fucking nonsense:
He says elsewhere that it’s a “liberal cesspool” so you know where is problem really is.
Those are very reasonable salaries to me. What’s insane and should never exist is those who make $200 million a year. Like who needs this much money? What are you gonna do with all of it? Does it even matter how much money you have after a certain amount? I think at a certain point it becomes some kind of disorder or a mental illness to pursue more and more money. Give me $100k a year and I’ll be a happy, very happy camper.
Edit: to be more clear, I’m talking about where I live currently. $100k where I live would put me in a very comfortable spot financially. My bad, everyone.
