Yes, I agree. That’s why I’m weirded out by people saying “Firefox bad, use Librewolf” and the like.

I still think a solution that relies on donation (maybe with some corporate support) would be very good for everyone involved. Unfortunately, Mozilla is not a player in this, so we’re stuck with basically three engines, one that can’t be used, one that’s openly hostile, and one that’s becoming hostile.

Not great.
