I do agree that the web sucks and would rather only use the internet via email, irc and torrents and only have terminal windows open on my desktop. Maybe even remove my desktop all together at that point. :)
Sadly, I still need to browse the web because there's a lot of useful information out there on the web. Thankfully, noscript and ublock origin filter most of the bloat.
There is librewolf which comes with privacy features by default.
There is palemoon which is forked from old Firefox, and is both lightweight and more privacy -focused than Firefox.
Chromium is far too bloated for me to seriously think of using it. It takes more than twice as long as Firefox to compile and has extra dependencies and is, well, chromium, maintained by Google.
