> They're colour themes. Mozilla's celebrating the fact that you can change Firefox's colour theme while trying to spin it as something super unique.

This is incredibly misguided to me.

Who is your core base? Clearly, someone who went out of their way to install a third-party browser on an operating system that likely comes with a pre-installed Chromium browser (whether Microsoft or Google) did that for a reason.

And they likely didn't do it because they wanted better themes or were unaware such a feature exists.

Has been user since Netscape open sourced it. Initially it gained a lot of users largely due to it been very customizable and listened to feedbacks. Over the years, I don't use FF anymore especially when they deprecated xul and Waterfox/Palemoon forked out. They lost most of their core that I think they not sure who is their core base.
