      Perhaps the hardest part to understand and appreciate is the extent to which the people who should be fighting for these users aren't. The board of @mozilla has a lot to answer for, given their mission: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/mission/ https://twitter.com/slightlylate/status/979097423510294529 …

      It's really, *really* important for web developers & others who care about the web to understand how poorly the web performs in emerging markets -- and why that re-enforces the centralizing position of top-10 native apps.

      I expect Mark Zuckerberg to be an absentee landlord of a growing empire...that's capitalism. But where's @cbeard or @MitchellBaker? The future is mobile. Where-the-AF-are-you, @mozilla? We need you in this fight.

          There will be all the "you've drunk the Google kook-aid" flack on this thread. Nerp. I work places that have serious, legitimate plans to make the web something other than a desktop-only, legacy-centric OS. So I work on @googlechrome.

          I was already heckling @mozilla about mobile more than ten years ago, back when they were telling everyone mobile should be handled like an intranet and would never be the real Web. I think they still hope the problem will just go away.

          This is a bad take, Robin. Mozilla was super late to Mobile (we joked about this at Opera as well), but hoping it will go away? Citation needed.

          Mozilla spends 63% of their revenue on making the web better for everyone. What about your employer? Certainly not the same investment relative to their means.

          I think Mozilla spends a lot more of its revenue than 63% on making the Web better. Firefox isn't our only tool for making the Web better. All that we do at Mozilla Corporation and Mozilla Foundation is geared to making the Web better for everyone.

          Its hard to disagree - with Firefox OS shut down and Fennec consistently struggling to get resources and priority. I understand the reasons but it doesn't make me love the result
