Charging for a browser died with Netscape in 1998

But I'm not pitching a browser. This is a web security product which people do pay for - it's a billion dollar product category in fact. The only functional difference is that the malware and fraud protection it provides is demonstrably superior to all of its competitors.

I think that's false, with the current state of internet, advertising everywhere, enshitification and monetization of users private data, some people are ready to pay for services that were considered "free".

I am paying for kagi, and I would pay for a good, private browser (I know they make onion but I'm on linux, not macos or windows).

Vivaldi is a decent option if you aren't specifically looking to get off Blink as the engine. It has an integrated adblocker and many other privacy-related features.

		I'm specifically avoiding chrome-based browser as form of protest against google's monopoly. Currently using waterfox, but might go for librewolf... In any case I'm very interested in servo, even thinking of contributing to it.
