    Look, at this point it’s not the user’s responsibility to “chill out”. It’s very much Firefox’s responsibility to try to repair their reputation by: 1. being completely transparent…

    Not sure what you mean by optimize, but MLB teams often play several games against each other in a row. But that’s slightly different because it could be seen to change the dynamic…

    In all likelihood an entirely new product will be a better fit in that case, anyway. Especially if whichever direction you do pick completely precludes what you decide not to do. I…
