Currently, Falkon, Nyxt, Otter, qutebrowser etc. are relied on WebKit
derivatives.

Yet, in the case of web browsers mentioned above, it would be
different, because non is dependent on special branding, non is
deceitful and unlike the big vendors, these web browsers actually offer
real solutions to real problems.

In case new limitations come accross the WebKit backend, then a new
fork of WebKit will emerge, with hardened security and privacy, making
it even better to be separated from the big vendors.

That would also be a great opportunity to remove the logo from the
"What's New" in the console drawer.

Rest assured, the big vendors, as they always do, will try to abuse
their status against such move by applying self proclaimed standards,
DRM and other sorts of privacy invasive components in the idiotic
excuse of security.
