Aren't Chromium and Blink basically the same thing? And Gecko isn't embeddable.

This is "In Review"[1], whatever that means.

Mozilla has been working on embedding Gecko since 2005. In practical terms, it can't be done.

I'd be glad to be proven wrong.


There are: GeckoView and Gecko Embedded, so it's doable.


Which roughly nobody uses.


But it's doable.


Blink is the backing engine of Chromium.


And therefore Chromium isn't a browser engine and shouldn't be listed there.
