I'm curious whether they'll stick with Gecko considering Google's influence over the project. I also wonder how they plan on succeeding where Firefox OS failed.

- Eridrus 8y agoThey have a much clearer plan than Mozilla. They're not trying to make an Android or iOS competitor, they are trying to make a feature phone OS. Firefox OS actually had some success in poorer markets, but that wasn't considered successful enough to continue investment. KaiOS is actually already successful, they are on the JioPhone which is almost being given away by Jio in India.
