    Servo was on hold while Mozilla didn’t have the money to fund development. That lasted for several years.

      Of all the things Mozilla does, this seems like the most fundamental to their core outreach product, their browser. And the fact they gave it up but maintained a lot of their superfluous activities just really frustrated me

        Yes, agreed. Servo is the only important project preparing them for the future they have. Shutting it down meant that they went into maintenance mode, only doing the bare minimum to keep the immediate income up.
