I have a hard time taking the "alliance" seriously when all three (mentioned) browsers are slightly different skins of Google Chromium.
But unsurprisingly, they are correct about their competitor this time.
So - of the 'major' browsers, Chrome and Edge are Chromium, Safari is WebKit, and Firefox is Gecko. Obviously many more beyond that that are usually basic derivatives of Chromium or Gecko but very confused why you think that there are only three and why they are all Chromium?!
I was talking about "The Browser Choice Alliance, representing Chrome, Opera and Vivaldi"
Ah, sorry, missed you were talking about the group in the article and not browsers in general. And yeah, the "alliance" is likely just bought and paid for by Google.
