I do have to ask...
What's the contingency plan for Firefox forks when Mozilla collapses?

@Vampire Gecko is still fine to use, since it's just rendering and JS, right? So, anything based on Gecko or WebKit, like Zen or Floorp or... iunno :3 there's a bright world of browsers out there

@alexia @Vampire I doubt that. Firefox IS Mozilla. What other product do they have with at least some popularity? Thunderbird?

i am saying that without hundreds of maintainers, firefox as a whole will slow down i development which will be bad for the web as a whole
