Firefox OS was pretty cool and had it succeeded(Which it might well have if they'd stuck with Witch's plan of targeting the third world), Mozilla would be in a much stronger position to influence web standards and generate revenue nowadays.

Firefox OS is something that should have been developed by an organisation that wasn't beholden to it's main competitor for finances(and still is).

Mozilla should have done everything in its power to gain it's independence(and still should).

I have been a Firefox user since day 1. I rememember, it was Phoenix, then Firebird, and for the last few years, Firefox.

I still use Firefox, which makes me so sad to see how incompetent(or potentially just greedy) the Mozilla leadership is.

Great product, poor stewards.
