Instead of promoting the Chrome ecosystem, you can just run Firefox with AdNauseum.

>promoting the Chrome ecosystem

So sharing an opinion you do not agree with is now called "promoting"? WoW

You no longer need to install extension that often are compromised, its Shield & Privacy is able to block YouTure Shorts and what not, no other browser does that or it does and Google find a way to bypass it.

We do not have access to the Shield lists, so neither does Google.

I used Firefox for years until it become useless, things might have changed now but too late.

And because I do not agree with your pov, I won't call it promoting Firefox, you do whatever pleases you!!

Yuck
Firefox has lost the plot, Orion is close but still has the odd UI bug that makes it tough to recommend, Safari is just Safari.

There is no truly good, independent, feature complete browser out there right now if you want to avoid Chrome and have something that a) works and b) isn't hostile to the userbase.

Brave at the very least said they'd keep supporting Manifest v2 extensions, though not sure how you'd acquire them anymore unless Chrome web store has kept the listings up.
