Well, you just described the definition of adware--your defense of it is that it's easy-to-ignore adware?

- BLKNSLVR 2y agoI barely even notice it and it doesn't slow me down in any way. That works for me. If that's where Internet advertising settles, then I might actually be OK with that. And there's plenty that I'm a long way from OK with.
- kerkeslager 2y agoI mean, that's your prerogative, but why settle for ads at all? Especially from a browsers that blocks ads from advertisers who don't pay them?
- professor_v 2y agoSo what's a good alternative for Android and Windows/Linux usage? I've tried Opera, Vivaldi and Firefox and disliked them for one reason or another.
- consteval 2y agoHonestly, firefox. I've had numerous performance and memory issues with Firefox but from my testing over the years it's the closest to Chrome/Chromium you can get. Also Firefox gets new features fairly regularly. It's still an "innovative" browser, as opposed to Chromium which is mostly stagnant. Vertical tabs are pretty cool. Personally, I just got to like Firefox over time.
- BLKNSLVR 2y agoTell you what, I'm going have a crack at Firefox as my primary. It used to be a long while ago, not really sure when / why I switched. It is more true to my ideals.
