The only problem with turning to a profit model is the potential for enshitification.
I feel this might stop enshittification. Look at Firefox, enshittification stems from a need to turn a profit and how difficult it is to do that in a decent way for a web browser. A privacy-centered email service on the other hand is an attractive product, and probably enough(?) to keep the email client running.
Unfortunate though that Mozilla is a US company.
