As someone who's been slowly picking their way along the narrow crooked path towards free software / tinfoilhattery / unixbeardedness for the past several years, I'm interested to know which browser you use. I assume given context that Safari and IE are right out. Chromium and variants are probably out? If Firefox and variants are out (not sure if all of them have the pulse dependency, because honestly your comment was the first time I learned about it - probably because I'm using Arch), what's left? Qutebrowser? Konqueror? I guess implicit in the above is an assumption of certain (non-basic) functionality that many people would consider table stakes in a web browser. Given that choosing to use any software involves making certain compromises (like "if you don't use Chrome, some Google applications will likely not perform as well") I guess my underlying desire is to know which compromises you are willing to make, given that you aren't willing to compromise your desire to keep pulseaudio off your machine in order to be able to use Firefox. On a scale I'm having trouble naming but that goes from about 1 ("my son bought me this iPad so I can see my grandchildren on Facebook") to 10 ("I wget webpages to my server then email them to my Trisquel laptop") your pulse/firefox constraint seems to me to be solidly in the upper half, which I respect, but which also makes me expect you are willing to accept compromises that I'm not (yet) in choosing a browser. Maybe I'm wrong, though, because there's a lot of browsers on this chart: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/74/Timeline_of_web_browsers.svg/3560px-Timeline_of_web_browsers.svg.png https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/74/Ti...
