A look at Firefox forks

look at Firefox forks Mozilla's actions have been rubbing many Firefox fans the wrong way as of late, and inspiring them to look for alternatives. There are many choices for users who are looking for a browser that isn't part of the Chrome monoculture but is full-featured and suitable for day-to-day use.

Its announcement on February 19 that it needs to "diversify" beyond Firefox did not inspire confidence, and it annoyed many who would like to see Mozilla go all-in on its flagship browser (and increase its market share) rather than chasing AI or dabbling in advertising. Floorp's layout is great for wide-screen monitors, and I like the ability to open sites in split view rather than juggling multiple browser windows. Like Floorp, the project solicits donations to assist with development, but little information seems to be available about its governance or structure to provide transparency about how the money is spent.
