Today, we’re excited to share a preview release of Hubs by Mozilla, a new way to get together online within Mixed Reality, right in your browser. Hubs is the first experiment we’re releasing as part of our Social Mixed Reality efforts, and we think it showcases the potential for the web to become the best, most accessible platform to bring people together around the world in this new medium.
[...] When using a Mixed Reality headset with Hubs, you’ll be able to interact online in a whole new way. Instead of through a screen, you will be spending time together in what feels like a real place. You can make eye contact, high five, laugh together, or just explore. It’s up to you, and it all happens right in your browser just like any other website.
[...] When in the room, you can see one another, move around, and pick up and throw virtual objects. And of course, you can hear each other’s voices with fully spatialized audio, so it sounds like you are in a real place.

Every time I think Mozilla is maximally crazy they come up with a crazier idea.
Still, it's Mozilla, not Firefox. Perhaps they won't attempt to force integration of it.

And they want people who use this thing to get together.
Maybe this is a secret plot to breed users!

FTFY as, unfortunately, they won't get together IRL.
Would it be so, the place to designate as appropriate for the congregation is Ship B.

Firefox is the short name for Mozilla Firefox and is a web browser. Mozilla is the company that makes the Firefox web browser.
If there is any air-gap between the to its strictly in your head.
No, you are mistaken. I've always had this sig.

The air gap is that the group makes, or can make, more than one thing. Granted, they seem to have given up Thunderbird...
