Today 10 years ago I went to Poland to buy a Phone with pre installed #Firefox OS on. The Phone was a Alcatel One, so very shitty. Two years later I installed Firefox OS on my Nexus 5 instead.

It was a very good concept, but sadly rolled out on too shitty hardware so it never caught on.

    I never understood why they targetted low end hardware with a tech stack that’s notoriously slow (web).

        Then use something more efficient than the web stack. In the end, Android ran better on the same devices and had better software support.
