      Bromite hasn’t been touched for 6 months, so this is the opposite of duplicating effort, it’s an effort to save the project!

      It’s exactly what you said: improving an existing app. For certain reasons, the original Bromite branding can’t be used and since the original project’s developer is basically left the project, this was the only way: forking and rebranding. The owner of this fork project was one of the main, most active contributors to Bromite anyway, so it should be fine. I wonder, though if there’s going to be a Cromite WebView as well, because I still use the Bromite WebView… Does anybody know?
