Aren’t they owned by an ad agency? Let 'em die like Netscape did beforehand. It’s not like there isn’t fourteen decent forks of Firefox to choose from.
Off the top of my head, there’s also Waterfox (supposedly also tied to an ad agency) and Floorp, which is what I’ve been using the past couple of months. There’s other options besides Librewolf.
The code is owned by a nonprofit foundation, but a lot of the assets and other compnies like an ad agency is owned by their for profit wing.
Most of those forks rely on Firefox upstream updates. Apart from some of their specific features and disabling of existing ones, they don’t develop the actual Gecko engine. We would really need someone with resources to take over the development.

14? I wish. From where I’m standing it’s closer to one. (Librewolf) And they only tweak what Firefox devs do.
