Ah, Web Browser Manager... once a staple of Zorin OS and Feren OS, and now practically being seen basically everywhere in the Linux Distributions market, alongside the likes of the concept of a 'layout changer', it has seen a lot of work, and heart, put into it ever since it was forked by me for Feren OS from the Zorin OS of then.

Nowadays, it seems like their original creators have seemingly phased out this utility from their OS, and ironically now, with the planned introduction of New Feren OS Store, once it is developed, Feren OS shall also be following suit upon the completion and release of New Feren OS Store.

Why? New Feren OS Store will have a section dedicated to Web Browsers, thus replacing Web Browser Manager's purpose entirely, and it'll also allow for even more web browser manager options to be added in the future due to the design of the Store accommodating for this. All-in-all, New Feren OS Store will make the existence of a separate Web Browser Manager utility pointless.

TODO for planned removal:
[ ] Release New Feren OS Store
[ ] Announce that WBM is being removed
[ ] Also add a notice in WBM itself about the change, and link to the new area of Store that'll fulfill its role from then onwards soon
[ ] After a specific amount of time, remove the Web Browser Manager from Feren OS and archive this repository permanently.
