Any guess for how long it'll take for Chrome and Firefox to get ported? Would love to hear what Firefox developers think.

  It's been reported that Google has been preparing an iOS version of Chrome using the Blink browser engine for a while - as they had assumed this would eventually be allowed.

    Had to look it up. They've been doing this publicly for a year now. > Bug to track creating a content_shell application that compiles in the necessary parts of blink, content, and components on iOS. This experimental application will be used to measure graphics and input latencies by providing traces for analysis. > Experimental only, not a launch bug for a shippable product. https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1411704 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=141170... Things like this reinforce my suspicion that Chrome (including Chromium, advertising, yada yada) is a billion if not multi billion dollar per year effort.

  There were full working iOS ports of Firefox 2-3 different times in the past, but it's unclear whether they have one ready to go for this ruling, especially given how poorly Mozilla has been run lately and how much they've cut back in their browser development investment.
