I mean, I like Firefox, but I'd love to see Vivaldi based on Firefox/Gecko. There's Floorp, which is similar in some ways but it's more like an Edge built on Firefox than Vivaldi.

Edit: Thank y'all for your answers. :D

I want to link !@bdonvr@thelemmy.club 's post because it is a similar quesion. https://thelemmy.club/post/718914

And I am convinced people didn't think the same would happen when everything other than Firefox and Safari switched to being based on Chromium because "nah, it's open-source, that won't happen."

Well, here we are. The only thing keeping Chrome from completely dominating is that iOS currently requires all browsers to use WebKit, but once there is a real Chrome on iOS, you know every site is going to tell iPhone and iPad users to "lol just download Chrome."

This is not the situation I was hoping for, but I saw this coming years ago.
