Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. These are minor things compared to having no other good choice but the Google browser.

I suppose someone should mention Brave is an alright choice. If it had mobile sync working, I might be using it (Firefox currently)

Edit: just checked and their android version doesn't seem to have implemented password manager support yet. I'm excited for when they do, but its disappointing.

Are we supposed to pretend that options like ungoogled-chromium don't exist?

Once there is no more competition Google can change how it open sources a project. Look at Android.

I've never found the "choose this, because the other option(s) suck more" to be a particularly flattering argument for web browsers, programming languages, cars, or politicians.

The modern aversion to "lesser of two evils" is a thinly-disguised post-hoc rationalization for apathy (or worse, nihilism). It's not even false equivalence, because that would suggest trying to paint both "evils" as equal; no, this is simply saying that, when presented with two choices where one is better than the other, we might as well make the worse choice, because who cares?

It's not supposed to be flattering. It's just saying it's the least bad option.
