Immagine if Chrome wasn't just a rinky dink Safari emulator!
Wow, can't wait to not only have my data harvested by Apple but also Google!
FFS, stop cumming for Chrome and start using Firefox!
-
There's no Firefox engine for iOS and Mozilla says it doesn't make financial sense to port it.
-
Did they say that? Cause it looks like there is at least some work being done on this:
-
There's been talk about exploring porting the engine to iOS at the beginning of 2023 but AFAIK the current state of things was that it's a significant undertaking and probably not worth it just for the EU market.

-
What exactly is there to port anyway?
-
The rendering engine.
Currently Firefox on iOS is "just" a skin around the iOS provided renderer.
-
I don't give a mousefuck about the rendering engine. I want extensions
-
I want extensions
Sounds like you do care about the rendering engine as that would basically give you a true mobile Firefox experience and access to all the extensions.

Gecko, the browser engine?
-
GeckoView more specifically in this case. But yes.
-
But they do have mobile arm builds already don't they? Of course iOS is very different from Android but it's not like they'd have to do complete port. And it targets the same architecture that's in macs and they have builds for it obviously.
