Yeah, the biggest problem with Firefox is that its engine is so hard to embed. Chrome has endless clones because it's just so damn easy to embed. And Firefox just has some weak forks like Librewolf.

I'd really rather see Mozilla focus on this rather than all their other stupid endeavors....

Wish this got upvoted more tbh. The devs of Pulse Browser are trying to make an environment where making a Firefox fork would be easier, but it's not like Chromium where the engine could be easily embedded. I've also heard Second Life had to move to Chromium for their embedded browser after using Gecko and having problems with it.

I find Floorp to be a really great fork
