Like using Chrome…
- ahartmetz 5mo agoUse Firefox then
- kergonath 5mo agoFair enough, Firefox is a bit better. But not that much, a lot of the bloat comes from unoptimised web pages running megabytes of JavaScript. Also, Firefox is close to a rounding error nowadays.
- ahartmetz 5mo agoWhat does it matter how many other people use Firefox if it's the better browser for your situation? FWIW I've never really considered Chrome: First it looked ugly (weird UI and bad font rendering on Linux), then Google gave itself permission to be evil and then they limited ad blockers. They fixed the font rendering at some point.
