What? The dominance of the mobile space by one of their competitors, who pre-installs their own browser, and who advertised said browser for free on the most visited website on the planet (google.com) for years, is absolutely relevant regardless of how old Mozilla is.
And the world isn't like HN, most people don't care that much about their browsers, and don't even know what "chromium" is.
Usually, when a CEO heads an explicitly sinking ship, the CEO will be removed and someone will be brought in to turn around the company.
No idea why that hasn’t happened.
