LOL "start" using Firefox. I've been using Firefox for half a decade. There's zero I miss about Chrome.
- OtomotO 2mo agoLOL half a decade. I've been using it for more than 20 years. I don't know why either of use loled though
- vsviridov 2mo agoLOL, I've been using it since Netscape Navigator 3.0 Gold, via Mozilla M3 (SeaMonkey tech preview), Phoenix, Firebird, and then finally Firefox :D
- nunodonato 2mo agoMosaic :P
- cecexacjrgec 2mo agoMe too. Too bad I had to abandon it because Mozilla seem more focused on making AI-nonsense than a browser nowadays. No, Firefox, you don’t need AI features. You do need a better UI. You do need smoother scrolling. You do need privacy focus (which automatically means you do not need AI features). You do need to feel like you belong on the platform you’re installed on and not wish everything were Linux. You do need better designers that understand UX is not just “add controls everywhere”.
- josephg 2mo agoHuh? What ai features? Firefox seems largely the same as it did a few years ago. I’m not doubting they added some ai junk somewhere. But whatever they did seems very easy to ignore.
- olyjohn 2mo agoIts just an excuse people use to keep using thier beloved shiny brand.
- takeda 2mo agoI'm assuming you use Lynx now then? Because I don't think you would be using Chrome or its clone if that's where you draw the line?
- vsviridov 2mo agoI remember using lynx at school, since they only let A+ level students use the X11 GUI. And then later on using elinks which was a bit more featureful on my own servers...
- epihelix 2mo agoOh, those great days when the competition was NCSA Mosaic. A simpler, better time. I miss it :(
- usrnm 2mo agoI've been using it since the time it was called Netscape Navigator. Just sayin'
- fragmede 2mo agoShit, remember Mosaic? Gopher?
- mrkstu 2mo agoAny fellow CompuServe users around???
- nunodonato 2mo agoLoved netscape navigator! That entire suite with mail, website builder (composer?)
- drnick1 2mo agoSome of us have been using it for two decades more or less.
- weikju 2mo agoRather than being smug, I’ll say awesome! The best time to start using Firefox is yesterday. The second best time is now. IOW: Don’t threaten to stop using Google Chrome if they do one more evil thing. Start now.
- hobo123 2mo agoReminder that by now the Android version is also quite usable (typing this from FF). Just install Ublock origin.
