The web was already doing fine with Mosaic, although that was also proprietary. Netscape was just the better-funded and flashier version.

- volaski 8y agoYou're missing the point. Like you said, Mosaic was ALREADY a great product, compared to the nerdy terminal browsers without embedded media, etc. OP's point is not whether netscape or mosaic is better, but that the graphical web browser was what brought the web mainstream. Doesn't matter if it's mosaic or netscape (or several other graphical ui browser competitors that existed during that time)
