I don't want to be a killjoy here. Don't get me wrong, this is certainly a good thing but to me it seems like most major trackers are moving/has already moved to things like canvas fingerprinting, WebAssembly fingerprinting etc.
This seems to be like a typical cat-and-mouse game. And browsers will not get more privacy friendly as long as there will be a trend that moves applications and basically every aspect of our lives into the browser thus making it unbelieveably complex.
I suspect that we will soon have to choose to either live as a "digital hermit" (links/neomutt and other lightweight apps that do only the one thing) or give up and join everyone with Youtube/Facebook/Twitter.
