It's the Gnome webKit browser Epiphany (aka Gnome web).

I'd prefer firefox but I don't have any real beef with it. Except on the dev kit the scrolling is more or less unusable. It might be a 'feature' of the dev kit since the imx8 runs hot enough to burn your hand on that due to hardware problems that shouldn't exist on the real device.

Is there a reason they wouldn't get Mozilla to help out with a FF mobile port? Seems like the obvious and symbiotic way to get this done.

I'm sure Mozilla would accept Purism's work if they did it, but even a lot of work for desktop Firefox (tabs in the titlebar, wayland) is done by Red Hat people.

That's true, there's a lot more to a partnership though then just the coding and it would still be beneficial for both.
