Not every single website needs to support every single browser. This is a modern convenience, I was doing QA back in the day when we still had to support Internet explorer.

Internet explorer just didn't provide the same experience as Chrome.

You were supporting the tail end of an era that is universally agreed upon as an ecosystem failure. The internet didn't provide a consistent user experience for developers or for users, it generated mountains of legacy baggage, and it was frustrating for everyone.

I was doing building and qa when we had to support Netscape Navigator. Not having a varied set of options for browsers comes with clear downsides.

I think we agree ?

For example if Firefox decides to add Rust support it doesn't mean every other browser needs to support it.

Just a handful of web experiences are going to be exclusive to Firefox. As is having Chrome as the only browser most people use isn't great for innovation.
