While mobile Firefox OS was certainly a difficult challenge, I don't think it would be as reckless on a desktop or laptop. I think it's dangerous for something like Chrome OS to become popular, and it is worth competing against. Would the OS like below be possible?

  • Fully open source
  • Strong security and privacy protection
  • User-friendly
  • Active use of web apps

This is off-topic, but despite ZorinOS having Firefox pre-installed, there are a noticeable number of users who use Brave. I know how Brave was developed so I am not brave enough to use it.

ChromeOS needs an open-source Firefox based alternative.

There was a FirefoxOS project. But it was aimed at mobile devices. It was the foundation for what now is KaiOS (https://www.kaiostech.com/)

The most versatile human interface today is the browser. And it is platform independent.

Please restart FirefoxOS, but this time for desktop and mobile.

I'm already trying to replicate Firefox os on my pixel. by deleting any app and creating a website shortcut or pwa version if applicable. if they revitalize it or even made a desktop version that is similar to chromeos flex where I can just download it. I would be sold.
