    I didn’t say it’s good for most people, I just prefer it and think other privacy oriented people should as well

      I understand. I am sure that most, if not all people who care about privacy already use Firefox. We need to help regular users to hope into Firefox. These people tend to know almost nothing about computers and a site that doesn’t work is Firefox not working.

        Yeah but Firefox uses non private defaults like Google as the default search engine

          We need to rid chrome of its monopoly first. Google is a privacy nightmare but it’s only because of chrome hegemony over the browser ecosystem that they are able to forcibly DRM the web and castrate adblockers.
