    Okay, and? It’s a proprietary browser for a company sponsoring paid search using a Russian engine. I’m quite happy to avoid.

      Are you talking about Yandax? They announced that they’re getting out of Russia.

      I do wonder why they’re not building on top of an open source engine or making their own engine open. We absolutely need an alternative to Chromium. It’s sad that this likely won’t be it.

          Oh, you’re right. I wonder if they will start contributing to webkit as a result.

          I’m also happy that Chromium’s total ~75% share, once you lump in edge, opera, brave, etc might maybe get chipped away a little.
