    Its a fork and they can choose to include the changes they want from upstream. They've come out and said they're not adding this AI bullshit. Librewolf has done the same.

    So yes, base is firefox, but it's not actually Firefox, in the same way edge uses chrome as its base (not exactly, but similar)
