Mozilla is unable to stick around for anything but a desktop browser unfortunately.

Desktop has a billion users, and while its market share is reducing, its absolute numbers don't seem to be. This is, in part, because working all over the world spend 8 hours a day in front of desktop (and many of them surf the web on the job).

Abandoning desktop is silly, just as ignoring mobile is. There's still a great opportunity to differentiate on desktop, but it doesn't matter if the mobile experience sucks or is nonexistent (a great desktop browser needs to sync with a mobile one).

I don't see any evidence that workplace desktops are disappearing, even while I do see a lot of evidence that people are rapidly abandoning desktops for mobile for personal use. In the long term, who knows. Maybe something else will replace workplace desktops ultimately.

How is this controversial?! Of course people will still browse the web from their work computers. The analogy to horse drawn carriages is absurd.

To say nothing of the fact that plenty of web apps will be written primarily for desktop, enabling users to do their jobs from the desktop. Billing reconciliation, payroll, etc. Myopic to imagine people shifting *all* their web usage to the 5" screens they carry in their pocket

Then the reality of huge %s — often 100% — of computing going mobile for a billion users may not make sense.
