Dear Fairphonies, as we apparently aren’t able to switch OS anytime soon I’d like to propose to consider Firefox OS for the future. Mozilla is putting a lot of effort into getting the web as a platform ready so that the often cited next billion will be able to afford access to what we already use e…

You’re speaking of the right to copy and modify some abstract piece of text.

Hi, the Fairphone 2 is a great project, not only from the hardware point of view as described here , especially from ethical point of view. The final aim of the project shares many principles with Mozilla. Unfortunately, at the moment the official OS for the Fairphone 2 is Android based and there is…

I think i heard someone here in the forum whisper something about Firefox OS. Stay tuned and keep an eye on the blog. (It will almost certainly be a community effort thought!)
