Cookie autodelete is useless if you use Firefox on strict mode.

I don't understand your edit, how is more things doing the same thing better? It adds complexity, attack surface while taking resources.

Privacy Badger is useless with uBlock Origin and cookie autodelete is useless with Firefox in strict mode.

What's the replace widget feature?

Decentralise and adblockplus do nothing uBlock Origin doesn't already do. You can remove them. Also it's uBlock Origin, not just uBlock.

That's weird, something is definitely wrong. Are they set up in a similar way? The first thing that comes to my mind is: Are you using the same DNS server on both? Differences in DNS response time should be more noticeable than rendering time on most hardware. And I think Firefox doesn't use the system DNS by default but I might be wrong. Do you mind checking? I'm curious now.

Have you tried Tree Style Tab or Sidebery?

You are right, I should have been more specific. He's openly homophobic. I'm also pretty sure that's not the case for Mozilla as he was Mozilla's CEO and was pushed out over this specific thing.

I don't know why you are shifting from CEO to employees.

How is this better as a protection against tracking? You are still making requests to trackers, this is so easy to counter, make multiple tracking requests, filter out want changes, keep what's the same and you have some tracking data.

Click fraud is a big thing, with lots of counter measures, I don't see how they could go past them as they are saying themselves that they have a very naive approach. To me it's useless at best, but more probably counterproductive.

I don't think the commenter you are replying to is arguing that chrome is a better choice. He or she knows it's bad but didn't make the change out of lazyness (no offence). Change has a cost, especially if it implies changing habits. So people will just delay or avoid them.

Regulations, like the Digital Market Act, are also a big factor.
