For now, that's possible. But for how long? When mv2 came out, we had a few hold off as long as they could, but now they're all v2 or v3. New technology will always kill the old, whether or not it's better. It's only a matter of time. Going with a browser that has consistently made anticonsumer decisions because a different browser has made a few, doesn't seem like the sensible choice here. Granted, we should have a browser that hadn't made any such decisions, but we don't yet have one that I'm aware (I hope I'm wrong).
Totally agree, unfortunately it's a question of whether Chromium forks can't keep up with cutting out Google stuff comes before or after Mozilla and/or their rendering engine falls apart.
Fingers crossed for Ladybird + Servo
I'm still holding out for Mozilla. They've gone all "corporate" lately, but they weren't always that way. Ladybird does look like a good project.
