They could also stop all this nonsense crap projects they sink money in without any real benefit, and focus mainly on the browser. This would give the browser likely 500% more funding than it has right now.
Even the worst default browser on the worst cheap China phone from the worst grey market is an upgrade to mobile Firefox. This is just a dumpster fire since release and Mozilla never cared about it even one single bit. You cannot even set a homepage in this junkware excuse for a browser.
To me, the point of Docker is having one container for one specific application. And I see the database as part of the application. As well as all other things needed to run that application.
In the end I have lemmy, lemmy-ui, pictrs, postgres, postfix-relay, and an additional reverse proxy for one single application (Lemmy). I do not want or need or use any of the containers for anything else except Lemmy.
There are a lot of other applications that want me to install a database container, a reverse proxy, and the actual application container, where I will never ever need, or want, or use any of the additional containers for anything else except this one application.
So in the end I have a dozen of containers and the same amount of volumes just to run 2-3 applications, causing a metric shit-ton of maintenance effort and update time.
To me the number one thing is, that it is easy to setup via Docker. One container, one network (ideally no network but just using the default one), one storage volume, no additional manual configuration when composing the container.
No, I don't want a second container for a database. No I don't want to set up multiple networks. Yes, I already have a reverse proxy doing the routing and certificates. No, I don't need 3 volumes for just one application.
Venture capital and crypto money do not last forever and they need to maintain and run a for-profit corporation.
The question is not IF they will sell some soft of βpro accountsβ and have advertising, the question is only WHEN they will have it. My guess is before Q3/2025.

Have one product, but make it a perfect product.
