Supporting Firefox continues to be way easier than Safari for web developers. Chrome and Firefox are very compatible with each other. It's essentially almost no effort. Mozilla seems to do fine keeping up. Wasm and Rust originated in Mozilla even and they are still very active on that front as well. I seriously doubt Mozilla will kill their company by switching to Chrome. It would be suicidal for them. Users would revolt and fork the code base probably. Mozilla developers especially and without their developers Mozilla is nothing. Just look at what happened to Opera after they switched to Chrome. They technically still exist. But they are a footnote in web server statistics at this point. A rounding error basically. I've not seen anyone using it in many years now. So, I doubt a move to Chrome would end well for Mozilla if they ever were to float such an idea. The history of Mozilla is that they bootstrapped out of AOL's Netscape division which was being mismanaged by AOL. Once the code base was OSS, people just left and created mozilla.org to cut loose from the failed corporate entity. AOL ended up with nothing. That can and will happen again if it needs to. In short, users and developers would abandon a Chrome based Firefox in a hurry and it wouldn't take long for them to get organized with a new foundation. Wikimedia manages fine based on donations. Millions of Firefox users would be able to keep the project going pretty much indefinitely. Mozilla would lose control over most of its key people, users, and assets. Which is why they will never do this. It would be corporate suicide.
