>I want my web browser to just be a web browser, no unnecessary add-ons.

When i try to consider what that really means, it leads me to think it actually encompasses a large and ever-increasing scope of features that have just become the norm. Browsers are becoming almost a general purpose OS.

Also, some of those features clearly require network effect to function which entails having it officially supported and suggested to the users (or even making it default).
