Mozilla doesn't have the same leverage as other players to push their browser. Apple has OS X and iOS to push Safari, Microsoft has with Windows the most popular desktop OS to promote IE and Google can use its search domination and Android to advertise and push Chrome. Mozilla tries to create its own mobile platform with Firefox OS and I hope they succeed with that, because they can use all the leverage. I really like Firefox. It's fast and stable, has some very useful plug-ins, it's well supported and I trust Mozilla more than the big 3. That last bit may be naive, I know.

That last part isn't naive at all. The last time all of the browsers were owned by private corporations, was called the browser wars, and we all know had bad that was for innovation and development.
