But wait, is this the only way my idea will reach the right people? Great question, you! And the answer is, of course not. Mozilla employees will regularly review ideas/feedback based on specific labels & keywords (hint, hint, don’t forget to use those when submitting your ideas).
We hope this clears things up a bit and look forward to hearing more from you 😃
