    I think this is the argument that the Ladybird people have made:

    • Chrome is dependent on Google ( obviously )
    • Edge is dependent on Google ( based on Chromium )
    • Firefox is dependent on Google ( 80% of revenue )
    • Safari is dependent on Google ( $4 billion from Google )
    • most other browsers are dependent on Google ( use Chromium ) - Brave, Vivaldi, Opera, etc

    Ladybird is intended to be a truly independent browser and especially independent of Google.

      Safari isn’t dependent on Google. It was just a no-brainer for Apple to take a free 20 billion dollars from Google for setting the default search engine to something most users would want anyway.
