Why i recommend everyone use librewolf or firefox
Looks like I’m finally switching to Firefox.
I reinstalled my pc and didn’t install chrome. Firefox is pretty decent.
I remember going from IE to Firefox when they came out with tabs way back. We probably shouldn’t have switched to chrome en masse in hindsight.
Nah, Firefox went through a buggy resource hungry slow period for sure. Chrome was miles better, I’m making the jump back. I kind of have been by default on Ubuntu, but I’ll probably switch on phone too.
I’ve been using it on my phone for a fair bit. I still run into issues from time to time where pages don’t render properly, but that could also have to do with the adblocking which is a major advantage of Firefox. I only use Chrome now if Firefox doesn’t work.
I used to use Brave for years, and tried Kiwi for a fair bit too, but both of them have their own issues. I’ve found that Firefox works well enough for me now and allows me to stick it to the man.
Firefox gang rise up!
How do they rise up, rise up, rise up, how do they rise up, rise up high?
Hope other browser developers realize chromium is a ticking time bomb. I’ve used firefox for over 15 years and see no reason to change with the current landscape of browsers being so reliant on google .
Seemingly my Google pixel phone has stopped connecting to the Internet with other browsers. So I’m stuck using Google Chrome on it. 😠
Lol, reading that “censorship” section alone tells you all you need to know about the author there.
Literally hammering 1984 quotes like they love to do (dude, if Mozilla has the same kind of power as the Party, I must be chilling under a rock somewhere). Even has one of their sections called “Cucking to Manifest V3”.
Back to the “censorship”:
They want to algorithmically decide which content is allowed to be posted, and which isn’t. This is especially relevant in the context of the fake pandemic, during which the whole world has been enslaved exactly thanks to the propagation of the “factual voices” over the so-called “disinformation”. The “disinformation” here includes mentioning the factual harm done by COVID vaccines or even proven alternative treatments for COVID itself. So, Mozilla supports a world where people are harmed without being able to defend themselves.
Yeah, sorry. No. People with this little regard for reality shouldn’t be taken seriously when presenting arguments.
This whole screed is aimed at a very particular brand of user that looooooves to pretend they’re all “facts”, when it’s just emotional outrage over perceived slights. Same ones who complained about DDG when they tried to deal with Russian propaganda links showing up too often.
It’s all very conspiratorial, as is expected, yet offers no real answers because conspiracies very rarely have any.
Also, have to lol at the SystemD shit showing up at the end there as well.
Okay, but change to what then? All the other options are just Chrome, Safari, and Firefox again.
Seriously… I’ve never once strayed from Firefox since its release.
I’m forced to use chrome for work and it is crap.
I guess that using safari on iOS devices is one exception, and it isn’t too bad.
I’ve been using Firefox since it was called Phoenix. Mozilla, for all it’s flaws, has been our first and only line of defense for an open web for so long.
Will ungoogled chromium be able to patch this out?
Beside this, I’m still a bit worried about the state of the internet. Currently, ad revenue is what keeps a lot of sites online/free to use. Within the current economic system, is it even feasible to have privacy online?
Eventually the chromium base will be too hard to patch if Google has their way. Surfing on ungoogled chrome is keeping the user agent the same as chrome. This shows devs and companies that chrome dominates and therefore they should only code sites to support it. Only true way to protest these changes is to switch to a different browser. Firefox and its forks are the only privacy focused options.
Who gives a fuck? It’s not our problem if it’s not feasible, they can find ways of making money without living in our asses. Or they can make a bit less money - they can buy less latte and guacamole etc
For Google, yes that’s true. Subscription model YouTube is working so that seems fine. But for other websites, such as news sites etc. I wonder if there is a feasible alternative because I don’t want those sites to go away.
