From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Nope sadly, Falkon works and was what I used with my time on Haiku. I think they also have qutebrowser.
I find it increasingly difficult to only use Firefox. Most of my coworkers are Chrome-only at this point. Anything that doesn't at minimum do Firefox is a toy operating system. That said, I'm too unskilled to get something as complicated as Firefox to even build, let alone on a novel system, so maybe I have no right to gripe.
