Why Bother With uBlock Being Blocked In Chrome? Now Is The Best Time To Switch To Firefox : technology

[-] [email protected] -2 points 2 years ago

I would love to use Firefox, would switch in an instant but the browser feels so barebones. I'm using Vivaldi and that's how I think Firefox should have been, tons of options and features. Don't want to install extensions that might be sold to the highest bidder.

As a user of Seamonkey - which you'd know as Mozilla, the app that Mozilla the company ditched for being 'too hard' - I have to say no. While I trust they're not as evil as Google, I don't trust them to do the hard part of actual software maintenance.

Nope. Brave with its builtin adblocker is more than enough. I'd dare to say that any browser with builtin adblocker is going to be more than enough.

p.s.:

"Yeah, but the guy donate 1000 $ to some anti-LGBT org years ago", "yeah, but the referral stuff", more crap bullshit, etc... Don't care. It's fucking browser, not a religion.

What is with the almost constant ads for Firefox on this platform? It seems every other day I'm blasted with some "Chrome bad get Firefox" article.

I get it, Firefox is great, we know. Beating a dead horse a bit at this point though.

Yeah, lets switch to questionable ethics company number 2 and shady finances.

I used to use Firefox as my primary browser and sometimes even recommended it, but after all those articles I started digging a bit and doing research on what the browser calls and does and I was bit horrified. What I really don't like about this Mozilla situation is that tech people tend to see them as the "all savior Mozilla" while, in fact, they’re full of shit.

If you do care about freedom and your privacy use LibreWolf or Ungoogled Chromium.

There's so many post about Firefox. Mozilla should throw some money at Lemmy devs for free marketing.
