I see a web browser like a TV screen. An I need it to do is display the internet with nothing in the way. Any attempt to add built-in "smart" features to it will make it worse. If I want something else added to it, I'll plug it in myself.

Maybe you should try qutebrowser (if you are not already using it). I'm not very into it, but maybe it fonds you

Man I am the complete opposite. I need my browser to display the Web with tons and tons of tweaks and adjustments and filters in place to make it actually readable for me. Rawdogging the Web in 2025 is wild.

That's fine. Those are the plugins you chose to install for your particular tastes and these are very important options to have available to the user should he choose to use them. That's not what I meant by "smart" features.
What I don't want is my browser with built-in modern equivalents of Bonzi Buddy that you can't remove.

Anywhere so long as they don't try to kill adblockers
Everything else the forks can work around. What's important is they don't give into manifest v3/WEI and become complicit in the death of adblockers.

To hell. In a handbasket.

My guess:
I also hope they add some AI thing. OMG I need more AI things in my webbrowser. It doesn't matter what it does, but it has to have this icon: ✨, that's the important
There already is really good AI integration in Firefox, just not enabled by default. It's a sidebar, not intrusive and adds new entry to right click context window. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/ai-chatbot
wow, S P A R K L Y
It's going backwards. You're supposed to make a search engine first, then create a web browser.
