Did they? - no, a while back, they were forced to use the Mozilla's Gecko 38 engine, because they couldn't manage it. I recall one build a couple of years back (which I warned people about) - 'Oh yes, we are a true fork of Firefox and will never need Mozilla ever again (apart from continually tapping them for security updates) At the time, they were using the Gecko 24 engine and that is what they should have continued to develop and use forever. This isn't just some baseless opinion, there is already precedent for the BS that goes on with these builds. In other words, they are telling you what you want to hear and hope they can somehow pull it off. Yes, they cry, we intend to continue to support XUL and legacy extensions.and when you look into it you can see that it is just wishful thinking and not a clear plan. Secondly, these 3rd Party Firefox forks tell the biggest load of BS I've ever heard. Firstly, with Firefox 57 (end of legacy extensions and themes) coming out in November, that gives 7 months for the dust to settle and the real way forward to become clearer. So, if that's only 9 months away, why not just change to another Mozilla browser now? -Ģ reasons. Your best bet is to, if you're not already, use Firefox 52 ESR and that covers you up until mid-summer next year. Just trying to forward-think where I go or if I stay after the big change.
