Yes, I’m aware of that. People would like to donate specifically to Firefox development though, and some donate to Mozilla Foundation under the impression that it would help. I’ve certainly done that in the past.

Then find a developer and ask them if they take direct donations.
yes, but donations is not a business model
Huh? There are tons of organizations (charities) for whom it is the business model.
How many of them make web browsers? An engineering team that can build one is not cheap.
Who said donations have to be the only source of income?
