Apparently Mozilla suffered financially from the COVID-19 crisis. I hope this doesn’t mean that Firefox and other Mozilla products will fall behind the competition.

Yeah, other browsers are either Chromium based or proprietary. Firefox is likely the FLOSS project with the widest user base (in terms of non tech users). It’s situation in the smartphone market is already quite bad. It’s probably one of the most valuable companies in the FLOSS universe.
And there niche browsers, of course like Lynx, Otter, Pale Moon, etc. but those are not realistic choices for taking on Blink/Chromium-based supremacy. Mozilla in general and Firefox in particular are critical for the health of the Web.
Well, Pale Moon is not just a ‘niche browser’: http://thereisonlyxul.org/
