I'm just waiting for Apple's OS level AI that lets me block ads in all apps, including the App Store

What's preventing anyone to just spend some tokens and bring it back and fork Chrome? I think ungoogled Chromium still supports it, right?

Too bad Firefox isn't a major browser.

And it shouldn't be. It's now full of ads for Mozilla VPN and stuff. We need the engine, but not the browser.

Anyone can build a custom extension to do anything an extension is allowed to do. I had ~7 standard extensions that I pretty much always install into chrome browser. Over the past month or so I've been using Claude code to build a single custom extension that handles all of the things I used 7 extensions for previously. One extension does everything. You can even use the existing extensions you already use as guides for Claude to make sure all of the features you want are included. One extension to rule them all!
