Is Firefox Mobile still arround/under development?

[Daniel]

I've just been reading alt.os.linux on my UseNet account and, it seems,
Google is changing the method of logging into Google .... and some
aren't impressed.

That got me wondering ..... I know, maybe ten years ago, there was a
FireFox-based OS for mobile phones. If it is still under development,
that might be a way of circumventing this move by Google.

Is Firefox OS still under development??

According to
https://www.ghacks.net/2020/03/14/firefox-os-successor-mozilla-and-kaios-announce-partnership/
it was abandoned in 2016. The article is two years old and implies that
the code lives on as KaiOS.

Thanks for that. I thought that might have been the case!

How weird that the article is EXACTLY two years old!! ;-P

KaiOS .... presumably developed by KaiRo, who was involved in the early
FF/SM development.
