Isn’t Netscape just Mozilla at this point? At least tech wise

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Yes, but no.

The source code for Netscape Navigator was open-sourced and has become Mozilla Firefox. The company Netscape is now a mostly defunct brand while Mozilla is a non-profit, public benefit company in service to the Mozilla Foundation, and the Mozilla community.
