Firefox is the browser I use casually. I recently found out about Firefox Quantum. I go to download Firefox Quantum from the mozilla website at https://mozilla.org/firefox/browsers/quantum. And when I click on the download button, It takes me to the same download page as regular Firefox. Did Firefox and Firefox Quantum Merge at some point in time? No article seems to help.

Hi

They are (and have been) one and the same. "Quantum" was used in branding from the end of 2017 and has been slowly phased out since, but Firefox has still been the same browser (with updates and added features).
