KIWI is based on firefox i think, not Chrome. mozilla has fixed the webp issue "ages" ago, v117.0.1 https://thehackernews.com/2023/09/mozilla-rushes-to-patch-webp-critical.html the used library belongs to google. v118.0.1 again fixed an issue in google library "Encoding of VP8-Videos in libvpx" kiwi needed over an month to fix this serious issue ITW? time to rething its usages!
"Kiwi Browser is a browser that is built on the Chromium stack" https://kiwibrowser.com/blog/what-is-kiwi-browser-about/
then they switched browser engine? i remember kiwi being able to use firefox extensions. nevertheless the webp issue is over a month old and chrome already fixed this and the latest issue in that library. moreover browser security on android need urgent updates.
that may truly possible. i remember kiwi can use extensions while the original can't, and i have firefox in mind. seems not.but i also remember kiwi being late with important updates. my bad.
I had to look Kiwi up because I haven't heard of it yet. Bu when it is so behind on security updates I don't care for it. On the website it says Chrome for Android is very limited on extensions compared to the desktop version, but Kiwi supports most desktop extensions.
