Who pays for the development? Is the linux model viable for a browser?
Open source browsers are either bad and non-competitive, or they're Firefox and still get criticism for being in the pocket of Google.

Brave or Vivaldi aren't bad. They get money from partnerships, search deals and donations.
They also avoid actually paying for browser development. Could Brave or Vivaldi fund Chromium itself?
I don't know, but they already contribute patches to Chromium.
