Others will present themselves. Mozilla have been on a downtrend for years. I've heard of a couple of alternatives, but I don't have the experience with any of them. If anyone knows any good Firefox alternatives, please let us know!
All good modern browsers are based either on firefox or chromium if I'm not terribly misinformed
I think Safari is WebKit.
Webkit is Chromium (or at least, Chromium is Webkit, since the inheritance goes in the other direction).
The only ^1^ browser engine that is a completely separate and independent codebase from Chrome is Firefox's.
(^1^ aside from extremely niche/unusable stuff like Lynx)
Close. Chromium uses Blink which was originally a fork of WebKit. I have no idea how much they've diverged since then.
The fork was 11 years ago, so a lot. So much that they are considered different engines now.
fair enough, although I'm not sure that falls in the "good" category :P
