Dear Mozilla, we really appreciated your intentions but we don't need more extensions but Gecko Webview to compete against Google's monopoly in this area. Chrome-based browsers are far ahead when it comes to security, see for example the GrapheneOS team of developers who preferred to adopt a Chromium-based browser rather than adopting Firefox as the default browser, they don't even recommend using it

GrapheneOS isn't a benchmark, it's a choice of a random distro essentially, others choose differently.

If you think Chromium is safer or more secure than Firefox, you are mistaking, just take a look at the changelogs of both

Changelog is not the point but the fundamental concepts and techniques. And unfortunately Chromium is far ahead.

Graphene as the most hardened OS is the benchmark. It's not random. Please inform.
