@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org In the context of this: while many of the actions of @mozilla@mozilla.social feel annoying (i.e. axing FirefoxOS just before it became widespread in South America) and while it doesn’t look like that if you plot a market share which includes the massively growing number of mobile devices with a bundled browser:
Firefox has been mostly keeping its users since 2017.
2017 and 2021 it stayed mostly stable at 190 million users
Interesting that they almost managed to stop the decline for a few years there. In 2024 after the recent string of nonsensical decisions it's down to 158 million.
@kbal@fedia.io yes.
While they were widely criticized during that time, 2017 to 2022 were actually pretty stable years. And that despite constant uncertainty about the future (“will Google continue to pay?”) and failures to get other revenue sources (AFAIK).
@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @mozilla@mozilla.social@kbal@fedia.io I have the impression that CEO’s and equivalents often forget the importance of the existing userbase.
So instead of making the existing people happy and trying to reach others from that base, they shoot for the big crowd — but without having enough to stand on.
@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @mozilla@mozilla.social@ArneBab@rollenspiel.social Oh yes, my feeling also about it.
