No, there's now more reason for gecko to survive. Can't have single engine dominate the web.

On the front page, I saw another headline that said Firefox desktop market share is below nine percent.

Except that we will probably have to support Edge for another 5 years for the people who refuse to upgrade, so in reality, it will be one extra unsupported browser that we have to write hacky workarounds for.

Honestly, I think it’s a monoculture already and the fact that multiple engines exist puts up an illusion of competition. Google controls where the Web goes today, and that there is an oligopoly is a false symbol. At least Chrome gets more dominance, we can no longer pretend Google doesn’t already own the Web.
