    No shit Firefox is really missing:

    • systemwide Webview for Android and Linux
    • sandbox compatible with Chromium, especially on Linux and Android
    • webapps through a secondary profile
    • very secure preset in privacy settings to make it en par with Torbrowser / Arkenfox
    • native support for custom Search engines (literally Edge and Chrome have that)
    • possibility for a side panel with custom sites.

    Thats it basically. Firefox is great

      • https://mozilla.github.io/geckoview/
      • sandbox compatible? Elaborate please
      • PWAs would be awesome, agreed
      • bad for casual, non-techie users, which expect pages to work
      • every site that supports opensearch is supported, just go on a page supporting it, click on the address bar and click on the green plus symbol
      • side bar exists as an API for extensions, same for containers! Mozilla provides an official extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/side-view/

        Geckoview is not a webview for those Platforms.

        The Chromium sandbox is way better

        https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/firefox-chromium.html

        Very secure profile. Your argument makes no sense, it would be opt in and Arkenfox works nearly everywhere.

        Yeah I am not talking about opensearch but actual custom Search parameters. Fenix doesnt support opensearch too.

        Oh nice extension, will try that! no that is not a sidebar I would like

        Addition: gui button for managing profiles, especially for secure and insecure profile. Most people dont even know profiles exist!

        Also: unlocking profile with hardware key
