      Less glib: you didn't just need to ship, you needed to ship a new vision for a platform. The shortcuts muddied the waters until nobody could see the vision, and, all else equal, nobody wants more platforms to support.

      People don’t build apps for a vision. They build it for users. We tried to get them. Were canceled before we could. @KaiOStech is finishing our run

      People absolutely do build apps for a vision. I'm shocked to hear you say this.

      We tried vision. Didn’t work. People build for reach not to feel good. Hard to blame them

      Vision is not about "feel good". It's about convincing people that you have a reason to exist that justifies the pain of another thing, and convincing them you'll stick around long enough to see it through.

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

      They made a strategic decision to go all in on desktop. Well known that it was not what I recommended, but I admire the bold counter-mainstream strategy. If the desktop ever has an unexpected big renaissance Mozilla will be in a great position.

      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).

      “Abandoning horse carriages is silly”. Principally correct but maybe we can agree that desktop is not where the future is headed

      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.
