Yes but no, there are 2 options you either submit a commit and chromium can accept that code or you fork the project and then you have to maintain it and add features yourself. So while they could it would require a ton more effort to keeping it up to datw

Then if this is such a pressing issue why has no one done so? I'd expect such a high number of people shitting on google to have the combined power to at least try to make a fork. But idk

It's just the scale of the project and perhaps something is already being discussed but it's an incredibly high workload plus it wouldn't actually solve the issue that basically everything uses chromium and even if you fork it people might not use the fork anyways
