I felt the firefox send death, used all the time to share quick files with friends, thankfully I discovered litterbox after they killed it.

Panasonic created their own version of firefox tv to use for their tvs
Imagine my disappointment when I realized "Firefox advance" wasn't for the Gameboy advance :(
I used the Notes quite a bit and thought it was a mistake to get rid of it. People pay for notes and tasks related sync services, so it could have been a revenue source. I also miss Firefox Panorama
Seeing "the source is available here on GitHub", "the project was forked and is now maintained as (other name)", etc. after most of these really helps show the difference with Google. Well that and the length of the article, Google has far more deaths under their belt.
A forgotten one is webassembly.studio, an in-browser IDE for creating WASM projects with way less pain than other methods. It got discontinued the year I needed it for my school project. It was open source but I failed to rehost it myself and public mirrors only appeared after I spent days trying to make Emscripten work, tore my hair out over WebGL and then finally painfully built the whole thing with CSS (and a bit of JS; yes, it was indeed a disaster).
Do you still use WASM? I've been exploring the space and wasn't sure what the best tools are for developing in that space.
Nope. But I guess a mirror of WebAssembly Studio would still be the best starting point despite its slow development lately. The WAsm plugin for VSCodium was broken for me too.
Note that unlike JS, WASM won't run from file://
URLs; you need to run a local http server or commit to an online repo to run your code. There might be an about:config
option to change this but many IDEs (incl. WA Studio, presumably) come with servers for this reason.
Twenty things Mozilla the company killed and they didn't mention ITS OWN NAMESAKE APP. It's didn't 'evolve' into Firefox: they split the baby in half and cut away the connective tissue.
Seamonkey is still kinda alive.
