FirefoxOS was a way out of Apple's proprietary walled garden and of being Google's product and information slave.
Maybe it was unrealistic to expect it to work out - one relatively small company fighting with Google and Apple - but I guess some people are optimists and want to believe that the world can be made into something else than corporate dystopia or whatever.

- bigbugbag 9y agoFirefox OS was the out of reality belief from mozilla that computer were dead in a handful of years to be replaced by mobile, combined with the absolute nonsense that they could compete without hardware manufacturer support. Wanting to believe in something is a thing, neglecting your core product and users to bet on a personal belief is something else.
