That is the point, it's not so important that a few % of the UI source of an browser is proprietary or not, way more important for the user are the ethics and transparency of an company

Yeah! Obviously not for everyone - but i do think people should re-consider their initial judgments. Just like I recently decided to switch to Fastmail away from Proton. I did some research around Fastmail, and to me, their missions and values won me over. For example, they help develop open standards such as jmap over imap. They own all of their own hardware - and encrypt all data at rest. Might not suit everyone, but defo suits me well and it's been a very nice experience so far.
