An independent browser engine is top reason I use Firefox. Anything based on Webkit/Blink is just reinforcing the monoculture and further locking out alternatives.


I don't know honestly. I don't like what Mozilla is doing with Firefox, and I'm not sure that we should support it.


Clearly we have different priorities and I've failed to convince you. Which is fine.

Hopefully enough folks do prioritize browser engine diversity, so we aren't stuck with no significant alternative.

Im not sure that we should support one "not the best" company just because other company definitely worse.


If you feel that strongly, there are other non-Webkit/Blink options besides Firefox.
