    Firefox is made with the Rust compiler since a certain FF version. To   
    continue offering Firefox for OS/2, you'd need to port the Rust compiler to   
    OS/2 also. Unfortunately it's got that many dependencies, that nobody could   
    ever keep the compiler up 2 date.... rather than Firefox.   
      
    That's why Firefox is no longer being ported to OS/2.
