There is a #phenomenon where a person successful in one area decides to focus their #energies on an unrelated area, to the detriment of their more successful work.
Michael Jordan, a #basketball wizard, decided to try to become a professional #baseball player. He (to use a technical term) #sucked at it.
After the incredible success of the single "Jump" from the 1984 #album, Eddie van Halen became obsessed with adding more synthesizer to Van Halen's music. The reality he never accepted: nobody ever went to a #concert to watch Eddie van Halen play #keyboards.
Why do I bring this up? Because it's the closest thing I can think of to explain the way that Mozilla has behaved for years. #Mozilla had #Firefox, a great, freedom-and-privacy-respecting web #browser used by millions of people. Instead of focusing on that, they pissed away engineering time, money, and #users by chasing #irrelevant crap.
Nobody ever used Firefox or supported Mozilla to build an encrypted file transfer service.
Or to become just another player in the VPN market.
Or to build a VR browser.
Or a reading list manager.
Or an IoT device manager.
Or a Macromedia / Adobe Flash clone.
Or authentication service.
Or geolocation service.

Search engine.Van Halen continued to be #successful despite Eddie's #synthesizer obsession, not because of it.
If Mozilla continues, it will be despite their #distractions, not because of them.

Part one of a commission for KazJester. Three friends stumble upon a strange living artifact in the middle of their living spaceship, which immediately attempts to suck them up, their toes clinging to the squishy floor as the wind begins to pull them in. Guess what happens next???
