It's the profit imperative biting them in the ass, you can't have exponential growth in a finite system so expect these megacorps to get more and more desperate (and draconian) as the bottom of the barrel draws ever nearer.

Jerboa also matches the font size of everything else in my UI better
This has been my biggest annoyance in all the apps I've tried so far, I'm using thunder at the moment and it's extra large font is juuust big enough, but still way too small to be called extra large.
Quite a few of the others don't even have that though, liftoff was terrible for it with no option to change it and Jerboa is easily the best in this regard but with it scaled up to match my UI it's a too much scrolling and weird formatting.
Can't wait for Boost, it was my reddit go to for years simply because of all it's toggles, I could customize pretty much every part of the UI. Which is probably why it's taking a while to come out, there was quite a bit more to it than pretty much any other of the alternatives.
You, sir, are worse than Hitler.
Give Vivaldi a try, it's a chromium fork but with a strong focus on privacy.

I've tried everything to try get rid of google's voice assistant on my phone, stripped it right back and disabled it and then went into the settings in google and my phone but still every time I turn on my wireless headphones it always pops up. It's doing my head in, why can't I stop it!
Don't forget the big labour union wins for UPS and the Teamsters, no war but the class war baby.
Comrade Gang has merely come down with a case of outspokenness which unfortunately lead to a terminal case of lead poisoning.
Not to mention that people that pirate that material are still going to talk about it, so even though they're loosing one sale to piracy they may be getting an extra 10 sales through word of mouth.
Just goes to show, google is an ad company first and foremost and they're in the process of cutting out any competition to their dominance.
Props too to Vivaldi for blowing the whistle as they have access to all the upcoming chromium builds being a fork.
I personally think corporations are going to kill each other off (most likely culminating in a global corpo-war where the last two duke it out) with only one surviving and becoming something akin to the catholic church in the medieval period, plunging the world into a new dark age.
