I see a lot of comments saying to switch to Firefox, or people saying they're
already using Firefox. This is fine, but I don't think people should be totally
comfortable with this. Switching to the one other choice still leaves us in
danger of the whole web being controlled by a few programs. We should encourage
other browser projects as well. I've seen some cool browser projects, but mostly
they use webkit still. I'm not sure what you call that part. The core maybe.
We need more browser cores. I think this[1] is one, I encourage people to share
more that they know of.
