Mozilla is unhappy because the use of browser engines other than WebKit will be restricted to the EU, forcing them to develop two different apps.

For an independent browser like Firefox, managing two browsers is not easy, so it can be forgiven that this could be seen as almost harassment.

Also, the fact that the use of browser engines other than WebKit is limited to iOS means that the use of WebKit is still forced on iPadOS, which also increases the effort for Mozilla.

    Firefox is the only browser with local website translation. Literally the extension is the only app on Android that does that.

      Wrong. Vivaldi has had local translation for half a year now.

        Cool! So it works on Chromium, they just need to implement it. Is it Foss? Do they use the same thing as Firefox?
