And those are the two options, unfortunately.

Exactly. Mozilla is better but not that much. What we really need is a 100% community-developed browser engine sponsored by several large companies that are independent from each other. But seems like it's too late, we're boiled frogs at this point. Although maybe these are the circumstances under which such an initiative could finally emerge.
