Firefox app on android. Never seen this before until today. But Firefox is now putting ads in the app?

If that was true, then why don't we have a fork of Firefox being developed by the community that is better than Firefox?

The only thing we have now are forks of Firefox. Sure, some are better, but all still rely on Mozilla's upstream contributions. If Mozilla stopped supporting Firefox, these forks would be dead. They just add some features and UI changes. They are not working on web standards, fixing implementations of those standards, or security fixes.
