My greatest hope at this point is that some small group survives whatever happens and becomes the new Firefox, like Phoenix/Firebird/Firefox did with the original Mozilla. Maybe the Servo team?
Mozilla has seemed way too big to me for the actual useful development they accomplish (which is quite a bit! But the company's giant...) for years, and this move stinks of "death spiral" :-/
[EDIT] and Firefox has been the new Mozilla browser since, what, 2.0? Bloated and slow. The original was so easy to sell to friends and family in no small part because it was snappy and light, even on early 2000s/late 90s (still-running desktops from a few years earlier) hardware.
