Has she said anywhere that those were her priorities, or is that just conjecture? People on HN seem to forget that she was the CEO of Mozilla, not Firefox LLC, and Mozilla’s goals have long been broader than just providing life support to a browser that continues to grow more irrelevant every year.

I work at Mozilla, there is no Firefox LLC. Please don’t post stuff like this if you’re unfamiliar with the corporate structure.

There is Mozilla Corporation a for profit entity that is responsible for virtually all development of products under the Mozilla name. Then there is Mozilla Foundation, a non-profit that is the sole owner of Mozilla Corporation. Mitchell until stepping down as CEO a few weeks ago was both the chair of the foundation and the CEO of the corporation.

> there is no Firefox LLC.

Yes, obviously, that’s the point I was making. She was responsible for more than just Firefox, but the only thing people here can focus on whenever her name comes up is… Firefox.
