insidedivision | 4 years ago | on: Ask HN: Can Firefox be revived?

Unfortunately Mozilla seems having problems with managing larger products or changes. I was following recent (last year iirc) transition of Thunderbird from xul based extensions to webextensions - no updated roadmap, the new extension model was pushed to production while being only part ready. Examples provided by Mozilla team were outdated and some used features that were no longer available. Other features were not implemented, some worked for pop3 and not for imap accounts. This thing was and probably still is a mess. So while the product you described seems to have some potential, i can't imagine it being run by Mozilla and attracting developers.

You do know, that there are 24 fulfillment centers in Germany alone and each one of them needs the same type of work, that is being done in each of 7 centers in Poland? Because your comment suggests that the hard work is being done only in Poland.

Wow, did they send her wav files? Havn't seen these in a while, thought that if you were to collect millions of audio clips from your customers you would use some compression algorithm, but apparently Amazon does not have to care about such details.
