Brave appears to install VPN Services without user consent
AdGuard for Safari is free and well respected. (And GPL3, if that floats your boat.) https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardForSafari
1Blocker is also well respected, but not free.

Is the lookup API really secure?
Perusing the source of AdGuard for Safari, it doesn't seem the lookup API is used at all. Apple deliberately made Safari content blocking only allowing preloading lists without dynamic lookup to a web service.

Any Way to Run Apps on Login Without Their Windows Opening?
Actually, the behavior I described is an officially recognized bug (bug #805) in the newest version of Adguard, and Adguard is currently working to fix it. https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardForSafari/issues/805

Looking for Lightweight and Good Firefox Alternatives
I used both Librewolf on linux and Waterfox on windows. Liked both browsers but chose Waterfox to continue with. Will not compare the performance of these browsers as used them on different systems. At least Waterfox was faster than Firefox on windows. Currently trying Floorp and Basilisk. I would suggest to check Mercury as well: https://thorium.rocks/mercury

Google's decision to deprecate JPEG-XL emphasizes the need for browser choice and free formats
Don't use Chrome. Try something, anything, else. The Thorium browser is fantastic, fast, and does basically everything Chrome does. If you're a Firefox person, consider trying Mercury, Waterfox, Pale Moon, or Basilisk. There is a whole world of rich browser forks that are specialized & often work better than their mainstream alternatives. Here, you can see they listened to us when large organizations didn't.
