There is this one, it has a lot of momentum and it's been pleasant to use so far. Firefox + fancy features

Firefox + fancy features

Means that it completely relies on Mozilla's development work for the actual engine.

Yup,

The non chromium / non Firefox browser that comes to mind is https://ladybird.org/

But that's still a few years away

Any idea what the story is behind that name? I feel like it will be off putting to some people.

Why would ladybird be off putting?

I am not agreeing with it, but just trying to get people to use anything other than the status quo when it comes to software/apps... If it has an odd name, they are less likely to use it.

Firefox was similar back in the mid 2000s.
