With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

I’ve been a Firefox main since before it was even called Firefox :D
As much as it lagged behind in speed in the early days of Chrome, back then Chrome didn’t have anywhere near to Firefox’s amazing selection of addons, many of which were essential to my workflow.
That also meant that I hated Firefox’s switch to WebExtensions, as it gutted most of the addons I used at the time, and it took them many years to get back as many features as possible (which of course has never been all the original features).
I even switched to Firefox ESR, then when that dropped support too, to Waterfox for a few years to retain the ability to use classic addons. But eventually it became too much hassle, and I have been a Firefox mainbranch user again since 2021 :)
For the handful of websites that only work in Chrome (or when I need to test my own websites), I’ve been using Brave in recent years. It’s weirdly into crypto nonsense, but at least those features can be disabled. But if anyone knows a better Google-less Chromium browser, pls let me know!
literally ungoogled-chromium
Are their Windows binaries safe to use? I don’t have the knowledge to compile it myself.
I compile them myself, but have been telling family to just use the binaries since, they can’t do the compile themselves, so far I don’t think I’ve seen any weird traffic compared to my own self compiled ones.
I also recommend iridium which is more strict and Bromite which is less
thanks :)
I just installed Vivaldi to test out
thanks, I’ll look it up
So before February 2004?
Yea, I remember when it was just Mozilla browser. (I’ve been an internet user since around 2000-2001-ish.)
You missed out on Mosaic? My main Gopher browser back in the early '90s.
Yea, iirc I went IE -> Mozilla -> Firefox.
