30 years? Pretty sure the options were Netscape and Mosaic.

Yes, Mosaic (VAX, Sun), Netscape (Dec Alpha), Firefox (Linux, OSX, Windows).
Firefox was released 20 years ago, in 2004.

30 years ago in 1994 you could have been using Linux (v0.99/1.0/1.1), Apple System 7 (not OSX), and Windows (3.2) - but not with Firefox.

You might have used Lynx or NCSA Mosaic, or by the end of 1994 Mosaic Netscape (later Netscape Navigator) or beta Opera.

I think they were listing the lineage of browsers they used, starting from the earliest one to current one. Not that they were using Firefox 30 years ago.
