From what I understand, Gecko was a terrible engine from the get-go. It is also difficult to work with, and had a lot of idiosyncrasies that made hard to build anything that isn’t just a clone of Firefox. There’s a reason why Apple used KHTML as the basis of Safari and not Gecko. Even Brave is based off of Chromium, and the founder of Brave is one of Mozilla’s founders!
So apparently no, Gecko is not it. We need something closer to a pure browser engine that is open source.
Isn’t that gecko, Firefox’s engine?

No, chromium is the Linux of browsers.
