I posting from Firefox monile now. It's my main browser.
If I use Chrome only it is for my sockpuppet accounts.
I far prefer FF even on mobile.
Sure, I'm not saying that no one uses Firefox on Android.
But their mobile marketshare is totally irrelevant compared to Chrome, UCBrowser or the Samsung browser (even this one alone has about as many users as Fx Desktop).

I found it ate all my memory and crashed frequent. Nexus 5X.
One of the things I found was that I had to use their Beta. Their main build wouldn't even start for me.
The amount of desktop usage hasn't gone down with mobile usage going up. Desktop isn't niche.
That said, more market share for Fennec would be nice.
(This comment written in Fennec.)
Desktop is less and less relevant compared to Mobile so it will get less and less attention from content producers.
I don't mind that some people want to keep focusing on desktop products, they have their use. But I think it's not what Mozilla should focus on if they want to "promote internet for everyone".
It is really sad that Gecko is becoming so good, but is mainly used to power a product in what is becoming a niche market (yes, desktop is becoming a niche in terms of users relative to mobile).
