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.

Am I the only one that misses a thick bezel?

Sometimes, makes using a tablet easier & I liked "chins" on iphone for the fingerprint reader.

I still want to go back to my Moto G6. The fingerprint reader on the chin is perfect. It replaced all the buttons so I didn't need the virtual chin or finicky edge gestures.
