Yeah it went Mosaic, Netscape, Firefox iirc.
Edit: And I think Netscape was a full rewrite as mosaic was owned by the university it was originally coded in, again iirc. That was a LONG time ago.
Netscape was Firefox? Somehow I never learned that. I fuckin loved the little space animation when a page was loading.
That’s because it’s not true. Firefox was first called firebird for a brief time… Otherwise its most closely related to the Mozilla browser… Netscape and mosaic aren’t even related to each other… I don’t know what this guy is smoking.
Netscape was my first browser on the beige apple desktops in the elementary school computer lab. I knew about it going on to become Firefox but not of anything before that. I still miss some aspects of the internet of that time.
So long ago that I had to go and use on a Sun workstation in the machine room because it wasn’t available for windows yet!
Mosaic, Netscape, Mozilla, Firefox
I use Netscape as my daily driver
Wow. That’s some blast from the past.
