I'm not looking for a hero, I'm looking for stability.

The fact that it's aiming to be stable doesn't mean it is. It's still a work in progress unlike other browsers.

Currently, it's pretty shit. It starts up in fullscreen with a non managed window, well, fuck that noise.

Question. Does it have uBO or an equivalent yet?

Without it, it'll simply not be internet-ready.

Why not just run a community build of Firefox, like IceCat?

If Firefox doesn't keep up with web standards, neither will any of the forks

Cold take: we need to stop chasing web Standards that are purposefully set up by big corpo to be exlusionary.

What we need, what Firefox could hope to be, is a browser developed for a new old internet paradigm. Maybe Gopher, or Gemini (the good one). Alternatively a purposefully reduced HTML+CSS, no JS.

Trim down the fat so that it is actually possible to finance the development of a web engine an browser without leeching on a dick corpo (and sabotagong open internet in the process).
