It’s wild they would do this since there are forks that are already so good. It won’t take much enshittification for me to drop Firefox altogether.
The forks only keep existing thanks to Mozilla development, they can't actually maintain a browser engine, just tidy up a bit around the edges. If people drop Firefox altogether and it dies, so do the forks. Not saying that it's wrong to do that. But it makes me worried for the future.
Hopefully, someone would pick up the slack.
Hopefully, but it is a huge project, it is really hard to overstate just how much work it is. There are a few hundred very good programmers working on FF full-time at Mozilla. To be a community project it would have to be thousands of people.
What a coincidence, we happen to have thousands of independent developers who use Linux and Firefox every day!
How is Linux related here?
Because Firefox is the default browser on virtually all Linux distros, and has a nearly rabid fanbase among Linux users.
Example? I'm already using Mull on my phone. What should I be using on desktop?
Hey, just so you know, Mull development alongside DivestOS development has been halted indefinitely like a month or two ago.
I switched from Mull to Ironfox not too long ago. You can add their repository to your F-Droid client and get the fork and its updates from there.
Thank you! Using IronFox now.
LibreWolf and Waterfox are both great for Windows, Linux, or MacOS.
Fennec is worth a try on Android.
Mull has been discontinued.
What? Since when?!
about a month ago. See comments above.
Thanks for the heads up.
