Firefox is the only web browser you should be using. Firefox.
Brave, Edge, Opera, only contribute to the Google monopoly, even though you are not using directly Chrome.
Comment on Google gets its way, bakes a user-tracking ad platform directly into Chrome

I use brave which is a chromium browser with all the tracking stuff turned off and a few ad blockers baked in. It also has some vpn and crypto wallet stuff built in but it’s not in your face so you can just ignore it.
This ad platform shouldn’t affect brave right? Should just be another thing the brave team are able to automatically switch off when the browser updates?

This should tell you all you need to know about the Brave browser. tl;dr it's a piece of shit scummy software helmed by a piece of shit scummy CEO.

I use Firefox, but given the fact that Chrome and its variants control so much of the browser space and Firefox so little... I wonder how long until Firefox has until it is rendered useless.

I have been hearing about FFs imminent demise for about 20 years now...

It will likely never die entirely, but it's what... less 10% of its peak market share back in 2010?

As ironic as this sounds, Google can’t let Firefox die because then it would become a monopoly

Firefox is too small for them to care, the only browser with a larger share is Safari (Webkit).
