"There isn't a single browser right now whose development isn't funded by ads."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Links_(web_browser)

Some organizational and individual users have paid for features.

The source code is relatively small, compile time is relatively small. Making small, privacy-focused changes is easy if one is comfortable with C.

One does not use a browser like this for financial or other important transactions. It can be used to do recreational, non-commercial web reading, such as news or other sites one finds posted on HN. One uses major ad-funded browsers like Chrome or Safari for internet banking or e-commerce.

Ha, I knew someone will mention Links or similar as soon as I typed that.
