Or we can just admit that Javascript is a shitty, unfixable language (read: 30-year old-tech demo spilled directly into global production) and all its infrastructure was built by neophytes trying to prove it could run with the big dogs.

Mozilla has been incapable of making a good business decision since 2009. They've gotten in and out of numerous side-hustles, seeking to make quick cash or create low-effort revenue streams.... usually 18 to 24 months too late to actually succeed.
They have ceded leadership of the browser space to Chrome. Part of how Firefox got worse is that it just started copying whatever Chrome did to cheapen the browsing experience. Another big part is their addiction to messing with Firefox's UI for no reason whatsoever. Firefox used to be the browser for power-users, now the user's agency is perfunctory at best.
Then there was the whole ordeal of disavowing Thunderbird.
Mozilla has new leadership now, packed with even more marketing and PR people rather than a new generation of technical innovators. Their race to 0% market share continues.
MS still has a shitton of legacy code in their repos.
"AI" doesn't explain Windows 8, Windows ME, Windows CE, Windows Vista, the Office Ribbon, or Microsoft Bob.
Without even a pretense of human users. Got it.
Social media is now complete, time to move on.
WordPress isn't just "kinda a mess", it is a 20 year old master class in poor application design and writing terrible PHP.
It is only a matter of time before their "AI" forgets to enable all the security plugins make WP sites seem secure for more than 45 minutes.
It won't be blank.

See? It's going to have ads.
No game released after 2000 comes close. The actual answer certainly came out before 1990, such as:
Has the package manager it deserves. It is a reflection of the language's community.
NPM is:
More JS package managers won't fix anything. All the problems stem from what the JS community considers to be a package, and that in JS world DRY actually means desiccated.
No other language's community would sincerely entertain the notion of an is-even package.
Social media platforms have zero user-facing incentive to limit any kind of content.
Content => engagement => ad views => revenue.
They only limit content when it might affect ad buys.
Only the users care about the user experience.
The only reason I run Kubuntu is because Mint dropped their KDE flavor after Mint 18.
Something is deeply wrong within Mint if the entire team lacks the skill set to support KDE. If KDE isn't major now, it will become so as Gnome continues to be contrarian about how everything in Wayland should work.
You had mail. Paul read it, so ask him what it said.
