I expected Mozilla to implement this, I don't know how they expect to get marketshare by just following in Google's footsteps every step of the way.
Is Firefox it's own browser or just Chrome with a different engine? Even Apple support jxl, well the decoding anyway.
Because Mozilla really doesn't care about what people think anymore. They're an incredibly bureaucratic group dealing with a lot of red tape placed as a force for good that doesn't always meet the mark. It's mainly the reason Firefox doesn't have a lot of things (that it honestly should have)
Also, Firefox is a completely original browser but it doesn't have a "chromium" version the browser like Google Chrome does. Both of the Firefox commercial product and the source code compile to the same thing.
I know, it was a rhetorical question given the stance they take on a lot of things always aligning with what Google wants.
Hey friend, for what its worth when i read your question, i was very much channeling this Garth Algar
But with your question about it being its own browser
Firefox is its own.
Follow the funding
Its own browser using the Gecko rendering engine.
It was a tongue in cheek, rhetorical question, regarding what I said before it.
