I'm fed up with it, so I'm writing a browser (adayinthelifeof.nl)

This blogpost starts with me switching of my car radio, and ends with me writing a browser. There is some stuff in between as well.

Interesting take from the author; exactly the kind of thing that might start something big โ€” or maybe it won't, and that's OK, too. Either way, I can appreciate the attitude!

Browsers themselves are easy to make.

What makes you say this? There are only 2 fully featured browsers, Chromium and Firefox. Anything else isn't a viable alternative even if we compare stock to stock.
