I don't think the comparison is meaningful. Twelve years ago, it was obvious to most people that the web on smartphones would be important. Mozilla understood that but they were presumptuous: instead of trying to create the best Android web browser, they tried to make an OS that could rival Android. FirefoxOS/Boot2Gecko failed, and their mobile build suffered from all this. I don't think that VR sets have the exponential growth that smartphones had on their first years. So this new target of Mozilla may never expand outside a niche market. And I'm afraid their flagship browser could suffer from the side-effects of this focus.
