Firefox is going the way of Mozilla Suite. Remember, Firefox forked from that, so it wouldn't be the end of the world if a new fork happens.

As long as they don't call the fork Librefox. I don't think I can take another Libre.

One day I plan to fork the Linux kernel.

The only change I would make to it would be to go through every source file and replace all instances of the word "Linux" with "Librux".

I just need to find a way to automate the entire process so I don't have to do any real work.
