. Mozilla could sell itself to some greasy investor and go full steam ahead on enshittification e.g embed ads in the browser, sell user browsing data, connect it to their own services, and so on.

Yeah but you can always fork it from the last push before that happened and then only tools will go with the enshitified version.

You make a valid point, but forking is a lot more than clicking "fork".
