I just found about this here.
If I were to give a talk, I would do it on qutebrowser.
If you like using Vimium, you owe yourself to try out qb, where keyboard gets first class in the application, not second-class injected into some pages with JS.

No need to contribute to the Chromium monopoly, luakit (what this comment’s sent from) and some other browsers (off the top of my head: nyxt and, to varying extents, Palemoon, lynx, and eww + evil-mode) offer the same thing.
All the keyboard shortcut always work, not just once a tab that's allow-listed has been loaded and JS has been injected into it.
All the settings, including e.g. tab position, fonts, tab loading indicator colors, etc. are configurable via :set
All keys are bindable to all commands via :bind
JavaScript, image loading, etc can be toggled globally, per domain, or for individual pages with keyboard shortcut.
Also, there is an amazing support channel on IRC.
I sympathize with your dislike of the Chrome monopoly. I test my websites in Lynx, Links, AND w3m, not to mention Netscape, IE, Opera, Firefox, PaleMoon, Waterfox, Safari, and many others. However, I also want a usable and performant browsing experience -- something Chrome definitely does not provide, but qb does. I don't think it's anywhere close to being Chrome, it is way better.
Anything Chromium based is virtually as bad as Chrome in terms of increasing the engine’s market share, making it the de facto standard and making the majority of web devs test their sites less or not at all on other engines (I appreciate you being an exceptional dev in that regard, but I’d appreciate more you doing your small part to influence all the other devs of the sites you use).
