It’s a bit niche, and I’m probably one of the few people who daily drove them when they were a thing, but bring back Firefox OS phones - they were a bit ahead of their time, but now that every app is a browser window anyway it’d probably be fine, and people are craving a mobile OS alternative to Android and iOS.
Sure, I’d personally prefer something a bit more powerful, so maybe a joint project between Mozilla, and a linux phone distro like PostmarketOS would be cool. Or (since I’m already in fantasy land) depending on hardware, considering Valve’s work on ARM for the Steam Frame, maybe a partnership with them.
Granted, it’s been close to a decade since I daily drove FirefoxOS, there’s always a chance I’m remembering things as better than they were. I should dig my old FirefoxOS Phones out and do a bit of a retrospective look at them.
FirefoxOS lives on as KaiOS, which I have used - It’s fine.
Right now the most credible third option for the mobile space seems to be linux mobile, which is already pretty well along. I’m not sure it needs a mozilla partnership to get more mature.
