A little admiration of how easy UI customization is on Firefox, and how shitty Chromium looks.

      It’s objectively worse than Firefox. For example, Firefox recently passed all minimum security requirements by the German Federal Office for Information Security. No other browser meets them.

      Edge is better if you are wanting to always have your data mined by Microsoft, for sure.

        If you use Edge than you probably use Windows, which means that Microsoft can already mine your data. I guess it’s better to have your data mined by only Microsoft than to have it mined by both Microsoft and Google?

          Not sure of this is still true, it often feels like edge is the main spyware feature of windowless in general, integrated into windows search.

          Everytime you search for an app or file it doubles as a edge search query to present in the results. You can try disable all the spyware on windows if you want. Edge still stores it in the microsoft cloud so you can sync.

          Copilot is a golden ticket for them now. Its literally an edge based application.

        As opposed to your data being mined by Google or sold by Mozilla? Dude you’re cracking me up.

          Mozilla literally doesn’t do that. If you’re concerned about them lying about it you can compile the browser yourself.

              I can packet inspect and watch them sell data? No lol they collect telemetry but you can use a derivative that doesn’t because it’s open source. That’s not the point though, the point is they don’t sell data. You can look at the finances yourself https://stateof.mozilla.org/

                Hmm guess they’re running a charity then. Your tracking is not data? I guess you and I have different definitions of what data is. Sure, you can lock it down if you really want. But so can every other browser.

          Or you can use browsers that can be set to not “phone home” - e.g.Brave, Librewolf - there are in fact a few privacy respecting options in this.

      This is a joke right? There is not a single feature it could have that weights against the fact that its still Chromium-spyware.

      Edge works better with specific vm coursework but not sure why. On Firefox I would press a key and it would input 0-2 times. On edge, it worked just… Normal. That’s the one up that edge has had for me.

      Some people Firefox and some people just love to edge. They get close but don’t really get it all the way.
