some small problems i face is that

while i use youtube it runs slower.

and the quick image search feature using google lens is not present.

and telegram voice call does not work.

Where as,
youtube = googlie
google lens = googlie
and
telegram via web requires chromium api, so = googlie

Hmm, proprietary things that are totally under the control of the corpo in question run slower or not at all on the corpo's competitor's browser. I wonder if that isn't exactly what avoid a monoculture is all about preventing?

Ah yes, google nerfing its own services under another browser for its own gain definitely isn’t the issue here.

There's an addon that not only adds that back into the right click menu but also adds support for other image searching services!

Its called "search by image" and it works very well ime
