Your security currently suffers if you choose Firefox over a Chromium variant.
This feels as shitty for me to write as it will to read.

- 177tcca 6y agoI posted this as an independent post for visibility, and it was killed within minutes, can't even access it. I understand the side of the debate that begs sticking with Gecko as an alternative etc etc, but, is it really off-topic here to show people the realistic comparison? A Mozilla hard-fork of Chromium would be a huge kick in the nads, emotionally, but it certainly would accomplish many of the things Firefox would need to reinvent to hope for parity ever again.
