According to this comment† from the very same post on Reddit:

> [Mozilla] in 2018's cash flow was negative ~1 million dollars while in 2022 it actually profited ~167 million.

A reply to that comment‡ states the following:

> Also important is that if you look at their annual reports, while it's still the most significant revenue source, the percentage of revenue coming from search engine royalties (i.e. Google) has been steadily going downwards. Instead revenues from their other services (VPN, Pocket, etc) had been increasing steadily.

And indeed we can verify those numbers on Wikipediaᵃ, where we see "Revenue derived from Google" trending downward every year.

So it seems she's been A) successful with continuing the search engine deal with Google; and B) increasing revenue from their other services (VPN, Pocket, etc.) so that Google's contribution to the revenue pie chart slowly shrinks over time.
