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.
