The Firefox ToC discussion pushed me down the browser engine rabbit hole (again). Have you had a chance to daily drive some really good but obscure web engine that is not Gecko (Firefox), WebKit (Apple) and Blink (Chromium)? How viable is it for a complete switch - this includes banking, chatting, logging into websites, etc.

Edit: Added link to the Firefox discussion to give better context to my question.

If you want obscure, I can recommend Lagrange. It can browse only gemini pages though, so you can't visit your favourite html websites.

Gemini is so weird and cool! My first day with it really made me want to start a little microblog on it or something
