Mozilla talks a lot and don't do much in this direction, they promised Tor integration like 4-5 years ago and all they did is setup 3 middle-nodes.

Brave Browser already has Tor integration in private tabs and working IPFS integration on -dev channel since beginning of this year https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/819

They never promised any Tor integration for the near future, see: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17205441 and the first comment. Brave can do Tor integration because its user bases is much smaller than Mozilla's (scaling the Tor network to support the load from all FF users still requires much work).

I don't know how they worked on the Tor integration, but I do know they are actively working towards helping dweb implementations in the browser.

https://github.com/mozilla/libdweb is one of the efforts, and it provides experimental APIs needed in Firefox to have a nice experience. So AFAIK, Mozilla not only talks about dweb, but also helps with the effort.
