Are you sure that you have your numbers right? It seems pretty common in the hn comment section for people to come in and randomly claim that Mozilla either spent all of their money or are losing all of their money. But the last figure I saw for their cash and investments was around $1.2 billion from late 2022, and everything I can find on their data spanning from the 2010s through the 2020s through today is that it's been a steady trend line up.

They had $91 million in 2009. 105 million and 2010, $193 million by the end of 2011, $372 million by the end of 2015, and I don't have every number for every year, but it all seems to indicate a steady upward trend.

I'm not sure how to look at those data and interpret them as squandering of cash and those are pretty specific claims that I would hope could be articulated in a clear cause and effect way if they were true.
