I don't know what to tell you, then. I don't have any of those issues now. It's been probably a good two years since I've had loading speed issues, never had the scrolling issues, and only had issues with the pull refresh when it first launched in Nightly.

Not much, which is why this isn't really a privacy issue. Privacy is already long gone. It's a control issue.
Think about how many websites use Google Adsense. With this DRM, Google could force those websites to serve content only to users using chromium, and specifically those without adblockers installed. They're trying to subjugate the internet.
and on Android it's just comically slower than any other browser available.
When's the last time you used it? I just did a comparison against Chrome on multiple different websites, and besides Googles own sites they were essentially equal. Even if it were slightly slower, I'd still use it over any other option since I have full fat ublock origin installed on it.
Congratulations, you now have your own little bubble.
It's the principle of the matter to me. Google became the multibillion dollar corporation it is by selling my data, your data, everyones data. To then come around and demand I pay to continue using their service the way I have for over a decade? But also still continue selling our data? Nah, fuck that. When they cut me in a percentage on the data selling business, maybe then I'd consider premium.
It's honestly not that hard to make one yourself if it's just for private use, with just a little google-fu you could have something barebones but usable within a day or two. That said, if you intend this to be publicly accessible, don't bother unless you have tons of disposable income. Filehosting is expensive af.
