It is essential to stop using Chrome. Under the pretense of saving users from third-party spyware, Google is creating an ecosystem in which Chrome itself is the spyware. (mastodon.world)

I once commented saying something like, except for work, all Linux users should be using Firefox. And this was the reply. Some people are just fucking hopeless:

"Firefox has only ever been a sometime back-up browser for me.....ever since Chrome appeared in 2007. Prior to that, I used it because it was the sole usable alternative to Internet Exploder....

The Mozilla devs, for far too long, spent more time stabbing each other in the back than they did writing code and fixing the tons of problems that were always inherent in the code. It's the only browser I've ever used that used to regularly crash & burn at least a dozen times a day. And ya wonder why people flocked to Chrome?"
