Why? That was one of the few non-Firefox things Mozilla was doing that didn't seem like an abusive money-grab.

They need to focus on making Firefox better instead of wasting resources on a dozen side projects.

Where do they get funding for that

They could go the Wikipedia route.

Not sure donations alone would cover it all in a sustainable way. Would be nice though

I think an easy "donate" button on Firefox that just easily took users to the donation page would be nice and easy. It's why I donate to wiki during their fund runs: it's right there, reminding me, and easy to do. Now, if they make it obnoxious, it'd just push donations away. It's a fine line.
