Ladybird is on the horizon.

Also Firefox isn’t built from the ground up I don’t believe. It’s based on Gecko which iirc was based on KHTML. idk i can’t fully remember don’t take this as fact. i use firefox and prefer it to chomium based browsers but Mozilla has been making really weird moves lately around AI that I think is very unnecessary.
