From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

"At Mozilla, we work hard to make Firefox the best browser for you. That’s why we’re always focused on building a browser.."

You don't need to lie to us. We are just happy you are finally working on browser features.

I'm looking forward to reducing ui clutter and profile improvements.

The lie is that they are always focused on making the best browser. The last few years they have focused on everything but the browser.
