Port of my old game for Firefox OS (that was a thing!) from HTML5.

Runs on Borowik Engine! (a proof of concept wat the engine is capable of)

How I miss you, sweet #FirefoxOS
@bramus @andremichelle ok, it's official, I am amazed!

We were to early with #FirefoxOS but @nitot words still resonate. #html5 and #Javascript devs of an open ecosystem: "we are legion."
La vidéo de A la French avec interview de @gael sur #Murena #eos
Réaction de Mononoke ma grande fille : "Papa tu as le même sweat Orange que le monsieur" Jean-Baptiste Kempf Bah oui j'ai le même modèle, mais avec un logo brodé... #FIREFOXOS ! Ce qui est bien dans le thème de cette super interview de celui qui, comme pour beaucoup d'autres, m'a permis de passer sous Linux il y a bien longtemps. J'avais même acheté la boite des CD chez SURCOUF !!!
@dimregnier We are legion! C'était le motto de Mozilla lorsqu'ils avaient lancé #FirefoxOS en pure HTML/JS... Et ça va très bien ici aussi.
Surfing the #FirefoxOS archived news group and I run into this gem: "quality counterfeit money for sale"

Maybe its just anecdotal but it seems that in previous eras attempts at #opensource mobile, #linuxmobile etc were targeting low end devices, whereas now they seem to be targeting the latest "mainstream".

The most extreme low end effort was maybe the #firefoxos ZTE devices, cute little plasticky things.

The difference can be quite material (> 500 versus < 200 in some monetary units).

No idea what best strategy to reach mass adoption but maybe chasing the giant phone selfie crowd is not it? 🤣

@regis besides trying to make some sense of historical patterns, my opinion is a good as anybody's 😅. My gut feeling is that the gate to a whole universe of amazing alternatives is in the direction of reimagining and reinventing the role of mobile devices. There have been intriguing attempts in this direction (e.g., once I had a #firefoxos phone) but the chokehold of the duopoly cartel is dramatic and does not allow experimentation. It is no accident: liberate mobile and you can change the world
@bohwaz at least #FirefoxOS and their other past flops were rather useful...
