As time passes I can't help but stop caring about the browser competition. They're all garbage, anyway. And I don't even mean that as an attack on the developers. As others aptly put it, browsers have to be bloated because the Internet is bloated.

Sometimes I wonder whether obsoluted not-so-flexible protocols like Gopher will make a comeback for Internet purists who are tired of the Web's increased complexity.

The internet is bloated or the web is bloated? There’s been attempts to move to a more lightweight protocol called Gemini which seems more like Gopher.

Out of interest, what features would you remove from today's browsers?
