Look at the tech Mozilla produces, all of it is non portable, exclusively for FF, and is not particularly great.

Chromium can be extended in many ways. V8 can be used anywhere and is what spawned node and the idea of JavaScript server and client side.

Firefox is more like a product that's source available than an open source project made to benefit the ecosystem.

They would do better to finally pony up, reskin chromium, and stop playing catch up.

They really should rebadge Chromium, then they can frolic with Rust UI changes and focus more on what they really seem to care about.
