Don't think they're intentionally trying to distance themselves from the browser, though. I think they're trying to find other ways to make money.

Ideally they would do this without dropping the Firefox ball but that doesn't seem to be the case. Of the funding that has gone to strange, now dead non-Firefox projects, I wish some of that could have gone to making Firefox better. Not just a faster browser, but other things like power-efficiency and continuing Rust migration.
