Didn't they allow Microsoft telemetry through the tracking protection since they rely on Microsoft for all sorts of stuff despite their "avoid big tech" advertising? There's so many better options, like Librewolf, Mullvad, Orion, Mull, even Brave if you really want a Chromium browser.

There's Orion browser, which is made by the Kagi search people. It is based on Safari, has vertical tabs, has built in ad blocking, and supports Chrome and Firefox extensions so you can install uBO. It doesn't fix the developer issues, but you might like it better than Safari, and it's not Chromium based like Arc browser.
Get Obtainium (downloads directly from sources like Github/Codeberg/etc) or Neo Store (downloads from F-Droid) and you'll get notified about updates.
