The same friends and family that we convinced a couple of years ago that they should stop using that shitty Firefox and switch to Chrome, which is so much more performant and don't worry about Google?
- sanxiyn 7y agoI never did that, I continued to recommend Firefox to everybody. If you recommended Chrome, now is the chance to repent your sin.
- CrazyStat 7y agoFirefox was in a pretty bad spot when I switched about 10 years ago. I would not have recommended to anyone who didn't have an excessive amount of RAM.
- cr0sh 7y agoI only switched from firefox to chrome, many years ago, for two reasons: 1. Better dev tools 2. Better WebGL performance But today, Firefox has upped their game on both, and really, I don't play much with WebGL anymore so it doesn't matter that much to me. I am kinda sick of this whole back-and-forth thing, though. I'm also getting tired of seeing the way the web is going; monetized and walled off. More and more, I'm starting to look into and toward distributed solutions. Give me back the internet I remember from the early 90s. If I can't have that, then I might just return to BBS-ing over ssh...
- ishan1121 7y agoActually, the internet has become too commercialized. But the problem is the top 1% driving all the revenue. And they are using this revenue to shape the web which is profitable to them.
- derefr 7y agoThe “back and forth thing” is the market force keeping the browsers from stagnating. Even though it’s a hassle, you really don’t want the world where it doesn’t happen.
- roboyoshi 7y agoWe all make mistakes, don't we? I'd rather tell them now to switch back as long as they can before we're stuck with google.
