Become a browser with privacy features, instead of a "privacy browser".
Enable battery status(Important for kiosks), web midi, web USB, web bluetooth, all of it. Just put it behind an option. Stop trying to keep useful web app functionality out of the web. I don't want to support that.
Start innovating and give us features nobody else has.
Integrate with Yggdrasil to trust 200: URLs on the tunnel as secure contexts(Or let people set a whole interface to be secure).
Bring back FlyWeb, immediately. When flyweb died was a key moment that made me lose all interest in FF.
Give us a way to package a website into a manually installable and redistributable "Box", that can be trusted as a secure context, with a manually selectable data folder, so it all just works like a traditional app. Like Web Bundles, but manually installed and treated as secure, with services that can run in the background all the time, etc.
Don't just lag behind or catch up to chrome, support everything they do, go past them and make web apps truly a replacement for desktop apps.
Stop trying to kill everything that can be used for tracking and let the user decide on a site by site or app by app basis.
- selfhoster11 5y ago> Also, people need to understand that Firefox is not the reason for Mozilla existence, Firefox is one of the tools that Mozilla has (and depends on) to fullfil its mission. I can't see stopping work on that as a significant resource saving. Most power users want less tracking anyway.
