#2Between this and Servo I guess Mozilla is just giving up on relevance. That really sucks.

#3Maybe we should try to find a list of exactly what they are focussing on going forward instead of the slow drip of things they’re cutting back on (servo, MDN, DeepSpeech...)
It’s a sad sad day when you have an organisation getting hundreds of millions in funding and turning away from what’s its good at. The decline has begun in my eyes, it may not become apparent for a few years yet.

#5Are they still collecting data for Common Voice, or is it both projects that they're terminating?

> Until a proper decision is being made regarding the future of the project, we will “keep the lights on” and try to address existing issues and review your contributions to the best accommodation we can in the scope of our new roles.
You could say that "keep the lights on" is the same as on hold.

#8I don’t know what is going to save Mozilla, really I don’t. I just wish there was a way to “reach” them and discuss how we the internet community could come to an agreement about what they could do to derive value we would pay for.
It’s not for a lack of trying on their part for sure, but it feels like just using their browser isn’t all there is to it any more

#9Does anyone know of other open-source projects in the speech-to-text space? DeepSpeech was one of the most promising projects, especially the latest versions...

#10I was hoping DeepSpeech would lead to in home cloud-less "Alexas". Just ask me for a subscription on it and productize it please.
