Mull is discontinued unfortunately, although I think it got forked?

I went back to Fennec. We'll see if a fork survives long term.

I just want Firefox on F-Droid, and Fennec has been that for years. I only switched because I got a new phone and figured I'd try Mull.

For mobile, yes, development stopped.

However, Mullvad (from the actual VPN folk) for desktop still exists.

That's why I said (from the actual vpn folk)

The two were often conflated because "mull" in the name. They also used many of the same resources for the prefs.js and other tweaks. (Arkenfox, tor uplift, etc)
