    It’s really dumb because Gecko and WebKit are right there. Putting them in your own browser may be a bit more difficult than reskinning Chromium, but it’s not some monumental engineering effort.

      They do say their MacOS browser is made with WebKit, so it’s definitely weird to use Chromium for Windows.
