Maybe webextensions isn't as I think, maybe systemd isn't as bad as I think... Although its also possible the reverse too, either way though...

Extension signing has nothing to do with WebExtensions. The "reverse" is not possible. Whether you like it or not. It is not a matter of opinion. It is a fact. In the same way that it is a fact that systemd is not obfuscated (for those who remember when you claimed that).

The post-truth politics apparently works very well on social media. Like-minded people turn into hooligans that way. Facts are not checked there: apparently, nobody enters the anti-Trump group or anti-Hillary group or anti-Mozilla group or anti-systemd group or ... to check whether the news confirming his/her bias are fake. Anything bad is "because of the enemy", even if "the enemy" does not relate to the problem in any way: the truth does not matter.

Well, it matters to me.

I will give you one thing if it means anything, pulseaudio is nowhere near as bad as systemd.

How do you compare a sound server to an init system (systemd is more than an init system, but does nothing sound-related)? You cannot technically evaluate software on a single good/bad (or "crap" as you put it in https://trisquel.info/forum/python-trap#comment-140631) scale. I am not defending Mozilla no matter what. Mozilla has just made a mistake with its certificate chain, its trademark policy abusively restricts the redistribution of exact copies, it implemented EME, i.e., DRM, in Firefox, etc. All those are facts against Mozilla. I am defending an evidence-based evaluation.

It is obviously not your method. You do not even seem to consider you have to learn anything about a technology to declare it "bad". When you are asked "why do you prefer extensions using XUL (or XPCOM) rather than WebExtensions", the answer "I don't want to have to use pulseaudio or systemd as dependencies" and the statement "systemd may be made into a dependency in the future" (based on nothing) are obviously off-topic: https://trisquel.info/forum/python-trap#comment-140658
