It uses qtwebengine, but it does have it’s own ui (making it less like Chrome) and some of its ownfeatures.
But which would you rather have an ai littered browser by default (Firefox), or use Blink.
Considering it’s just a rendering engine, and that the browser has adblocking built in,doesn’t automatically scream to me privacy invading. Unlike in Google Chrome you can even auto clear your browser history on close. The browser itself isn’t based on Chromium, when it first launched it had a different rendering engine.
When I first started using it it was using a different engine. If it’s using Chromium and it scares some of you, then don’t use it. But with Mozilla doing that they are doing now days with ai and ad networks, does it even make a difference now, between using Firefox and Chrome?

yes, they are not nearly on Googles level, not even comparably.
Secondly it’s not even primarily about that, even if it made no difference, two competing shitty companies is better than a full on monopoly.
I’m not coming from google hate, I just want there to be more than one actor, therefore I will never ever pick the largest one.
Qtwebengine is essentially chromium lol
Hmm. I’m using Waterfox rn.
If it keeps out the ai features in the latest updates and the ad networks, then that fork and some of the other Firefox forks might be a good option.
