Pretty extensive but leaves out Phoenix and the meteoric adoption of the lightweight browser and then the co-opting, injection of XUL, and return to bloatware.

Pretty extensive but leaves out Phoenix and the meteoric adoption of the lightweight browser and then the co-opting, injection of XUL, and return to bloatware.
People left Mozilla products because they didn't have enough RAM to run them.
Phoenix was the first time I started looking at Mozilla again.
- NonNefarious 4y ago"Extensive?" This isn't exactly fact-filled: "It all started with an app called Netscape Navigator, developed by a group of people, which was then bought..." This reads like a poorly-researched junior-high report.
- politelemon 4y agoAgree to some extent, this feels very sketchily, or maybe hastily, written, with seemingly anecdotal or incorrect historical paragraphs, and just a little supporting data. It's nowhere near the deep dive the opening promises. I'm getting confused.
