    There aren’t really any others though, every browser these days is made by a company with corporate interests in mind, either their own, or someone paying them.

      While it may be true that capitalism messes with all of them to some extent, I think there’s still a pretty wide chasm between a Firefox fork like LibreWolf or WaterFox versus just using a default install of Chrome or Edge.

        Forks are great, they can fix and change small stuff, but for bigger things like Manifest or engine level changes it’s an uphill battle because those change the developer ecosystem and momentum, and changing those to your liking is possible, but most developers aren’t going to take advantage of them.
