@jrballesteros05@social.linux.pizza I worry about this too. While #Firefox is free and open source software, meaning anyone can take over maintenance theoretically, the source is also a huge mess which is getting increasingly hard to figure out what's where, and why things work a certain way. Back when they had an IRC channel they actively refused to explain how certain things worked either, which didn't really help in spreading the knowledge to keep Firefox going into the indefinite future.
Sadly, #Chromium is only acting on the whims of #Google and therefore cannot be trusted as a reasonable competitor, and I don't expect any new browser engines to be made given how ridiculously complex the web has been made.
Sometimes I think it'd be better to just give up and use #Gopher instead, but the world won't just move with me and I'd still be forced to use a regular web browser for many things, such as banking or dealing with the government.
