That's basically true for all software. Unpopular options that no longer receive support recede, regardless of their price-point.
Or should I also have an Opera instance hot and ready to run, just in case?
- hackuser 10y agoFirefox isn't just any software; the survival of the open web, and therefore open software in general (because the web is a major platform), depends in part on their marketshare.
- chappi42 10y agoWell then Mozilla better would spend their resources more wisely and refrain from political influenced decisions, e.g. Thunderbird, FirefoxOS, Brendan Eich. Mozilla/Firefox lost much respect from me (not that they will or should care;)
- Karunamon 10y agoThe survival of the open web, whatever that means, depends on a bit player (~15% marketshare, neck and neck with IE) with an abysmal security record, questionable leadership, and who's in the immediate process of disassembling their only remaining competitive advantage? If this is the case, "the open web" did not go extinct, it committed suicide.
