Today 10 years ago I went to Poland to buy a Phone with pre installed #Firefox OS on. The Phone was a Alcatel One, so very shitty. Two years later I installed Firefox OS on my Nexus 5 instead.

It was a very good concept, but sadly rolled out on too shitty hardware so it never caught on.

The nexus 5 was peak size for a phone imo, it's a nightmare trying to find a decent 5" phone nowadays.

Iphone mini apparently is pretty good.
