I agree. It's an outstanding achievement that Firefox remains competitive with Chrome
- and even exceeds it - given the disparity of resources between Mozilla and Google. The Firefox community also tends to be more responsive on their bugtracker than the Chrome/Chromium team. (seriously, great work y'all)
(also, they've even caught up to Chrome in version numbers! joke)
- peakaboo 5y agoI think Firefox is a much better browser than Chrome. I mean once you tried container tabs with a different session and cookie store for each tab... It's just amazing. Also no Google in my browser is a huge plus.
- calvinmorrison 5y agoI'm fairly certain Google just pays Mozilla money to avoid any claims about being a monopoly browser.
- dangoor 5y agoMy understanding (with the caveat that I worked for Mozilla a decade ago) is that Google pays Mozilla and Apple money for browser search placement because it directly makes them money in ad revenue. Someone put the numbers into a spreadsheet and said "yeah, it works."
