Have you recently noticed increased #Mozilla work on #firefox ? From small things like finally supporting .mkv files playing, through better linux support (things related to GPU support, XDG dir spec), AI stuff, AI stuff kill switch for anti-AI fetishists, to new GUI on Android.... Probably more.
Or is it just me?

Edit: I mean all the contributions to Firefox, not just by Mozilla staff
Fun fact: government in Poland will be introducing "new" communicator called "mSzyfr" (in eng would be "mCipher") that is just matrix-protocol backend and rebranded element client. I mean, I think that is rather good, as this really seem as attempt to leave the micro$softs and other companies traps.
I .... don't know yet what else to think, as for example the backend will be "Element ESS Pro" which means rather good financial support for matrix-related development (synapse, element etc..), but well, afaik this is not open source, which would stand in contradiction to full polish jurisdiction, as it is being advertised.
Not to mention that I have not found yet the source of rebranded soft that is used here directly.
And the probable AGPL license breaking case.... Well, this could be just polish-style fuckup, but let's hope it's not.
Initial purpose of the mSzyfr and other resources can be found on the official gov site: https://www.gov.pl/web/baza-wiedzy/komunikator-mszyfr
