The chances are some new foundation/non-profit will be created to fund its development.
It's either gonna be great like other community-oriented project (like FreeCAD, Blender, or KDE), or corporate-centric that prioritize industry needs (O3DE, OvertureMaps).
Though, there's Servo and Libweb as potential future replacement. Servo is managed by Linux Foundation Europe. Libweb is managed by Ladybird Browser Initiative and so far have structure like other community FOSS project, like Blender or Godot.
KDE has two browser that they already maintain. Based on the QtWebEngine. I'd love to see more development on them.
