Use chrome to download Firefox.

That's Edge's job. Though I guess they're basically the same thing...

Equally fkin useless.

I wish I had a 1.0 version of netscape saved somewhere so I could use it.

Back in the day when I still used windows, I did not even use IE to download Firefox. I used the FTP functionality inside the explorer to download Firefox from the Mozilla FTP.

I didn't even need a browser to download another browser, I just git clone it from the AUR :P

Just curl it from Mozilla, they provide an archive file that's distro agnostic.
