I like the extra option for people to switch from chrome but personally I will stick with Firefox as it is open source.

Here's a bit of context:

I was excited at first... then I noticed that its another Chromium based browser.

How does it do with privacy? Fingerprinting protection? What about the Manifest V3 disaster? Is the Ecosia browser tagging along with Google's decisions or is it going its own route? Apart from integrating the Ecosia search, what makes it stand out?
