Almost as if a browser company that’s not also an advertising company has no reason to fight ad blockers.

You can always fork firefox. People used to use website not requiring javascript at all and it worked well. Some people still use even w3m f.e. when graphics card driver goes bad after update and they need to watch some docs on the internet. Most current browser have most features you would ever need

i mean they bought a privacy preserving ad company to offer an alternative for companies to google, which is what they should be doing.

because like it or not people depend on ads for their sites.

Same. Firefox Mobile had been a laggy mess when I used it a few years ago, but a combination of some really aggressive advertising and the announcement of manifest v3 caused me to give it another shot about a year ago. It’s a dramatic improvement in phone browsing.
