I'm still of the opinion that we need an organisational fork of Mozilla, preferably not domiciled in the US.
We have technical forks like librewolf, that's not what I'm asking for. I'm asking for new stewards of the upstream code. Although perhaps if the forks want to consider how they'd become a hard fork, with an organisational structure that would work too.
Mozilla is a product of it's surroundings. It's surroundings was silicon valley and well 🤷♀️

@blogdiva @onepict The code is not the most impressive I've ever seen. Starting from scratch is not a terrible idea.
I have a copy from about 16 or 17 years ago, which I was embedding into a product scanner. I wonder what it does in 2025, other than get me hacked.

@onepict Exactly. After decades as a Firefox loyalist, Vivaldi (lovely Scandinavian worker-owned anti-AI initiative that it is, still based on Chromium) is what I now rely on for workspaces and synchronisation and tab sharing and while I miss containers, the Firefox forks that I know of don't offer me that via account sign-in. So yes, I totally agree! Not least because Google's little "Look, we can't be monopolists, we're funding Mozilla" project isn't cutting it any more, not by a long shot, and not for a long while now. It's almost as if they *want* to seal their fate by alienating the ~5% of browser users they had left.
