And also based on chrome. That's the thing that people seem to keep ignoring. Your browser options are Firefox or something based on chrome.

pre-chromium Edge was too good to be true.

It was shit. Once Edge changed to Chromium it actually became a viable option and in my opinion made Chrome irrelevant in business environment.

Chromium browsers are good. I personally prefer Firefox, but Chromium is alright.

No one asked for something that wasn't Chromium based here. It's the open source community, that's how it works, most of us are very happy to settle for just having some different maintainers. We weren't ignoring it, it's just not relevant in this particular post.

Well, given the people talking about it I'm not sure I'd agree that no one was asking or talking about finding something not chromium based.

A lot of people don't like having a monoculture, Google driving the entire cadence for new feature development for the web, or having a privacy focused browser whose process is to try to delete the tracking from a not privacy focused browser.
