Mozilla is just enshiitifing on a different schedule than the rest, they will end up in the same place at the end. there are lots of pre-enshittifiaction firefox forks that are much better. Try one of those instead.
That may be true but librewolf, waterfox, zen, ironfox, etc don’t have large companies with funding from google to push out features and security updates as fast as possible. Meaning that if Mozilla goes down, then all those forks go down with it unless they can find lots of contributors and funding.

I’m using one of those, it still depends on Firefox being around
No not really, once it’s been forked the original can die and the forks will be just fine.
The forks will not be just fine because they’re dependent on Mozilla for the new features and highly important security updates.
Oh yeah? Because famously netscape navigator is still around for firefox to get all of their features and security updates from.
Oh thats right it’s not.
Forks and downstream are very different. Showing your ass here.

That’s true for a hard fork, not a downstream fork
Most of these other browsers are downstream forks. I’m not aware of any popular/reputable hard forks of Firefox
