I used to work with a developer who'd preach the "IceWeasel is the ultimate browser" gospel to us. I guess this makes your argument somehow more valid:) OS mig

OS might be hard, as Win and Mac have their own browsers, so my first guess would be Linux or security focused builds of Android. This doesn't sound like enough exposure to make a significant/disruptive change.
I expect Mozilla to be more active in this area though. Yes, performance is important and I switched to FF recently too, but I'm still using Electron powered apps on my MacBook.
What's more plausible is a situation where Chrome for some reason (ekhm... privacy?) loses market share to FF/IE/Safari. Having more competition will make my browser better, regardless of my choice.
- JetSpiegel 9y ago> Linux Firefox is the default browser in virtually all distros, even Debian. As for Android, to make a difference it would need to be installed in Gapps-by-default phones, so Google would have to concede. Maybe if the EU hits them with an antitrust lawsuit Microsoft-style, otherwise it's not gonna happen.
