For a long time, the official website of the Firefox browser has been placed under the Mozilla Foundation domain name, but now the Mozilla Foundation has enabled its own brand domain name Firefox.com for the Firefox browser, and users will be redirected to this new website when they visit.
After migrating to the new website, the official Firefox browser website is relatively concise, unlike the previous Mozilla Foundation website (Mozilla.org) which was more complicated, and the navigation bar also has a lot of information about other Mozilla Foundation products.
The Mozilla Foundation blog has not published an article to explain the change of brand website. In this case, changing the domain name is actually not a trivial matter. I wonder whether the Mozilla Foundation will write a blog post later to explain the advantages of changing the domain name.
It is very common for browsers to use the company's main domain name as the official website. For example, the Chrome browser website is Google.com/chrome instead of Chrome.com. The domain name used by Microsoft's Microsoft Edge browser is also Microsoft.com/edge.
Now that the Firefox browser has been replaced by the brand domain name Firefox.com as the official website, I don’t know if Google and Microsoft will also enable the browser brand domain name in the future (a blind guess is probably not, after all, this is really not an important thing).
