edit: just installed WaterFox and apparently they use bing, very interesting choice. I am not sure if I am for that, but heck I can change the default engine. So, I don’t care
also, I like Waterfox already uninstalled Chrome. I can’t believe I didn’t know this until now. Why can’t Firefox do this btw?
I know firefox is the only non-chrome browser out there, but how hard is it to make an extension for firefox along with chrome?
I cry myself to sleep knowing that the extensions I want are available on Chrome and not on Firefox. And it’s not going to get any better as Firefox is not gaining any users. Also, why the hell is this the case? I would pay to use Firefox! It’s FOSS and it has so many features, Idk, deserves to be no 1, but it’s f*cking dying!
There are some extensions I can’t live without and only for those extensions I am forced to keep Chrome on my computer. I don’t like Chrome and I don’t want Chrome but I want them extensions :(
Also, how safe is Chromium? Is it de googled? I think I might go for de-googled chromium + Firefox from now on. I will uninstall Chrome. I have disabled updates for it anyways!
it’s not terribly difficult for a developer of a chrome addon to also support firefox, as they both use webextensions (with a few differences–more once chrome fully drops manifest v2 in their effort to neuter adblockers), so the first step would be simply to ask them to.
