Google can go fuck themselves for this. The moment their stupid Manifest v3 bullshit came to light, I quickly migrated to Firefox and haven’t looked back.

As someone who never switched to chrome in the first place, it's fun to watch all the smoke and fire now.

Mozilla was quite the memory hog, back in the day. In some respects, it still is, but it's certainly better than this Manifest v3 crap.

Firefox is probably the oldest browser in existence. The only surviving one among the original three (Netscape Navigator). The fact that it's still among the major two is impressive by itself.
