I want to make a web meme now based on the galaxy brain progression thing where its just like:

small brain: google chrome/edge

slightly bigger brain: vanilla firefox/brave

average size brain: hardened firefox port with Ublock & JS default-disabled

genius brain: qute-browser/lynx/emacs browser/ anything running on a open source web engine
