Bad call, because it's genuinely too hard for someone the size of Kagi, as they've discovered.
There's room for a Chromium fork that has a better reputation than Brave. (I use Brave, and it's great, but I realise many people don't want to use it.)

I use Orion (because pay for Orion Plus to support them) specifically because it is not a fork of Chromium.
We need more rendering engines out there in the wild, as the situation with chrome's monopoly is already critically dire.
