  It is concerning - because Firefox barely has enough users to sustain it.

  If no one takes on the development of Gecko, we’re in the soup. It’s the only alternative to blink and WebKit. Tor relies on it .

    Er… if you think Mozilla is sustained by its users then I have some bad news for you. Or am I misunderstanding you?

      Mozilla is funded by google to promote the search . But how much longer are they gonna pay if no one uses it ?

        If you read in between the lines, Mozilla is also funded by google as technical competition to chrome so that governments dont break them up with anti-monopoly busting case.

    I had to do a little digging but it seems that Mull has a spiritual successor in the form of ironfox for android. So far its legitimately good, just add its repo to your fdroid
