    Mozilla has lost its way. I hope there is a coordinated effort to fork Firefox.

      You’ve got Librewolf, Floorp, Iceweasel, etc.

      The Floorp Devs have said they’re going for a more modern build soon, and they’ll probably turn off the PPA.

      Additionally, the Servo project needs contributors. They are now under the OSI umbrella and are working towards making the Rust Servo engine fully functional as a standalone web rendering engine.
