While i respect the vision (the decentralization scheme is really enticing), the last thing I want to see when opening up a storefront is an AI "ask me anything" prompt. I want to see what the storefront offers. When I open amazon on a private tab right now I see the wide range of products they sell from mobile devices to toys to beauty supplied. If I open Etsy I see blankets, artwork, and dalls. If I open Wootings store page I see the different keyboards they sell. As a first impression a blank page with "ask me anything" (even with a couple suggested prompts) makes me uncertain about the whole situation I walked into.
I feel like fedora is pretty accessible at this point. The main speedbump is enabling non-free repos but if you're helping someone install linux for the first time you just tell them to check that box during setup.
This isn't the same due to the sensitive nature of pornography consumption but in the US this is exactly what happens when you buy certain cold medicines (pseudoephedrine specifically)
I use firefox mostly because it's not blink based, and because I've used it all my life, but I also really love the userChrome system even if its hidden behind a flag. Since I use mostly vanilla gnome I use a firefox libadwaita skin [0] that makes it blend in nicely. I used to be jealous of chrome based browsers for their performance but I tried to switch to brave a couple years ago and honestly it doesn't look or feel very nice.
Most chromium-based browsers feel the same and its disappointing. If I wasn't as happy with the gnome skin for firefox I'd probably be using Zen [1] because its nice to see a firefox based browser that tries to introduce new features and create an identity of its own instead of joining a size measuring contest on how hard(ened) they are (I respect them, but it's a very saturated market at this point).
Editing to add that like @WarOnPrivacy said, containers are also a huge feature that I don't think I've seen any chromium-based browsers replicate.

I was the same way for years and appreciated it but unfortunately I did start to treat myself more and it's hard to go back, but my financial situation is also much better. I think it's valuable to stick with the lowest sufferable quality of something until you have the ability to meaningfully upgrade or improve upon it.
