Why is so much profit needed?




Depends on how you look at it. They made $653 million in 2023, most coming from their biggest competitor, Google.

They don't need this much money, but it means more layoffs and cutting scope drastically. It's expensive to run a modern browser.


Do you mean they need income, or do you actually mean profit?

In a nonprofit, you don’t need layoffs unless you’re losing money (negative profit), normally.


Yeah you're right, I said profit in the original post because it was a nice polyptoton, but I did indeed mean revenue. That's on me!
