An example: “Are We ESMified Yet?” is a Mozilla dashboard tracking an incremental Firefox code migration (1.5 years and counting) from a Mozilla-specific "JSM" JavaScript module system to the standard ECMAScript Module "ESM" system. Current ESMification: 96.69%.

“Are We X Yet?” is a Mozilla meme for dashboards like this.

I saw the phrase “are we X yet” used in the Rust community (is Rust ready for games or whatever) but never realised the phrase’s origin with Mozilla. Thank you for the little piece of history.
AFAIK, https://arewefastyet.com/ (AWFY) was the first, registered in 2010.

“Are We Meta Yet?” http://www.arewemetayet.com/ is an incomplete and outdated list of some of these dashboards. Some domains expired and are now squatted.
