One thing that was different in the 90s was that even though games were expensive to buy outright rental shops were common. I played loads of N64, SNES and Mega Drive games for paying £2.99 for the weekend. Plus games were more stand alone as well so you got more for your money.

All the forks need to make a common engine independent of Mozilla. Pale Moon did it with Goanna and it is shared between Basilisk and K-Meleon as well. The big problem is that any new engine has to beat being filtered by Cloudflare or other WAFs that discriminate by user agent. A bold idea is for all the Firefox forks to rebase off of the new Ladybird engine and abandon the old Gecko codebase entirely.
