Just disable the ads, crypto and telemetry and suddenly none of those things are a problem anymore, just like Firefox.

The options on Android aren’t much better
Literally every one of them is better, because none of them are running iOS. That’s my subjective opinion.
unless you go for some obscure manufacturer who won’t support the phone with updates 1 year after its life cycle.
Samsung and Google both support devices for 5 years now. Doesn’t matter how long Apple “supports” the software because they don’t support the hardware.
That’s not really a “solution” so much as a “workaround”. It’s unofficial community-maintained software with complicated installation, limited features, and that the service providers can break at any time. And even if that weren’t the case, that’s only 2 providers.
If I need to use a web browser, why wouldn’t I just skip Kodi altogether and just plug in my laptop?
There’s a reason Google TV is an entirely different operating system from Chrome OS.
any solution that’d work on a Linux machine would probably be okay.
I don’t think there is a Linux solution. That’s the problem.
I mean that’s nice but can you run Netflix/Hulu/AppleTV/HBO through that thing? Or can you only play media that you illegally downloaded?
Why not both?
I think in reality the Chrome web browser is a huge threat to Internet freedom and should be a top priority.
I have to imagine they will strip it because if they don’t, it’ll be dead to all of their users.
That’s the exact opposite of what most people want from an app like this.
