This project is an independent “fork” of Firefox, with the primary goals of privacy security and user freedom. It is the community run successor to LibreFox

It seems like a fork to me.

Also, the "patches" consist in the removal of telemetry, which again be disabled in the settings or through the about:config.

A browser needs an high amount of money an people working on it, it's not sometimes that can be done by a few individuals. Forks of Firefox are alive because Firefox is alive. No Firefox , no forks.
