Who cares if it’s a soft fork as long as it’s open source? The point is to keep the fork clean and if Mozilla fails, the community can just take it over.
Dunno how pale moon is doing nowadays, but forks either follow the bigger principles of the base project or wither into obscureness if the base project changes underlying technologies.

Librewolf is just a set of patches on top of Firefox.
There are no developers.
I know what it is, I was just saying that the community would take over Firefox if need be.
Not really.
Mozilla spends many millions a year on devs for their browser.
If they stop doing that, LibreWolf won’t have any patches or updates.
The community is t going to take over from mozilla.
I’m not saying it would be easy, but that’s the whole point behind open source. We’d have to at least try.
