I have the kind of life and personality that really gets into the latter (I have written at least one gemini/mini web browser, and I will almost certainly write another https://mastodon.social/@sarahjamielewis/112928301142039640)
(One of the many reasons I am not the person to manage a general purpose browser project)
But I do recognize that while much could be replaced with standalone clients (to the despise of many) it would leave a very big gap between what we have and what is needed.

To make clear my reasoning behind my thoughts, a little story: I made the decision to adopt veganism well over a decade ago. One evening I had a realization that my values were not aligned with my actions, I did not like that feeling, so I did something about it. I've recently realized that I'm feeling that same kind of dissonance again. Firefox, or any modern web browser, has progressed to a point where using it has began to come into conflict with some of the deepest values I hold.

@sarahjamielewis@mastodon.social Yeah I'm pretty impressed how far I've personally managed (before burning out) with the subtractive approach, gives me hope for that approach!
