Midori was a lightweight browser based on WebkitGTK+. I just discovered that it's dev has been taken over by Astian in 2019 and that it is Gecko based with releases for Windows, Mac, Linux and Android. It it presented as privacy-oriented and lightweight. Coincidentally, they did a new release yesterday.
Of course I'm interested. A new Gecko based browser is quite surprising these days. I've used Firefox non-stop since its 1.5 version. I also could use a privacy-oriented and lightweight Gecko-based browser.
But who is Astian? They present themselves as Astian, Inc, yet they have a .org domain. It seems they are privacy and open source oriented, developing open source products including Midori and a "cloud". Their About Us page is a lorem ipsum and the href attribute of their email contact is mail@domain.com. I don't find much about them on the Web.

Do someone know more about all this here?
