Mine is that the useState hook is an actual plague on the entire React ecosystem. Regardless of your opinions of React, if you wanna use something then use it right.

It's the only non chrome browser

How about the KDE ones?

There's niche WebKit browsers too, like Epiphany. Also Ladybird in development, but that went full AI slop AFAIK.

Safari? I'm not suggesting you use it, but it does exist.

I’d care if they had a Linux version

Well, there are forks of firefox like floorp, zen, waterfox, etc. but i guess they might still count as firefox, because they are forks and not built from the ground up, only using the gecko engine from firefox.

Calling them forks is, in most cases, wildly too generous. They are derivatives of Firefox. They develop and maintain a few features, but they ar completely dependent on upstream for general progress.
