Who do we turn to for a browser? Not chromium based I don't trust google codebase.
Orion for macOS is pretty awesome.
I actually love Safari but on my work computer I’m forced to use their VPN and can’t run my ad blocking DNS stuff on it, so I use Orion with uBlock Origin on it. It’s basically Safari (built on WebKit) with support for Chrome and Firefox plug-ins (which can be selectively disabled).
Idk I still hope a Servo-based browser somehow materializes itself someday, but if/when that happens, who knows.
Yeah idk either sadly. But i know that having only two relevant browsers on the market is like the US party system. Destined to fail.
Nothing lasts forever just like Steam or anything else will one day turn to shit. But pretending like everything is fine will just lead to lots of "we shouldve seen it coming".
I think it comes down to what you're willing to sacrifice. If I can do banking that's the hard line for me, so JS at the very least.
