I wuv firefox :3
I love my little purple unstable fox 😀
I found Firefox WAY before i found Lemmy, no Chrome on my machines, UBlock Origin, Noscript, Facebook Container, Video Downloadhelper, Firefox lets one retake control
If you like Facebook containers, try the Firefox Container Tabs extension.
Librewolf is great; ngl it feels like vanilla Firefox has gotten too comfortable pushing sponsored content as of late
FIREFOX MY BELOVED!!! I haven't touched chrome since summer of 2019, don't regret the switch one bit.
Firefox mobile with uBlock origin is a fucking godsend, the mobile web is nigh unusable without it because of ads.
Whenever I'm watching someone else use a browser and I see how many ads there are, I realize how great UBlock is.
It's also part of why I don't use apps for things like YouTube: I don't have to deal with ads if I just access the site like normal via Firefox.
Love me some Brave...I use Firefox when that has issues though.
Brave is chromium
fyi brave is owned by a homophobe and they profit from putting their ads on content creators' accounts without asking them first
well fuck
Feels like I can't support anything without finding out it's run by pure evil- or that it's in the process of being ruined.
Fail again
Ok but Firefox is kinda bad compared to Edge, functionality wise. It beats it in privacy hands down though.
What features is Firefox possibly missing?
I mean I use Firefox, but why is it a better alternative? (I think I started using it cause it doesn't stop screen sharing on discord)
uBlock Origin (the good ad blocker) works best on Firefox because Google made it impossible for it to work as well on Chrome, and all browsers based on Chrome inherit that flaw. uBlock Origin is better because the developers don't have an "acceptable ads" program where they let some ads through, like Adblock Plus does.
Also, the developers of Adblock Plus let websites buy their way into the Acceptable Ads program.
https://adblockplus.org/en/acceptable-ads
https://restoreprivacy.com/report-ad-blockers-allowing-acceptable-ads/
Mainly because it's not a Chromium based browser. Chrome is making it hard/impossible to use adblock, and if Firefox were to die for whatever reason, Google would basically monopolize the way we interact with the internet (which it has almost done already)
Firefox stopped working on my pc so I switched to opera
Sounds like your PC might need a refresh. Apps don't usually break for no reason.
Yeah, I know, but I really like how opera remembers tabs, so I might keep it anyway
Firefox remembers tabs as well, there are many days where ill start Firefox and ill be looking at the same tabs I'm looking at when i last closed it, and if not there's always the "restore previous session" option in the history menu.
- It's an option in the settings for remembering previously opened windows and tabs.
Thx, I'll look into it
I'm on Vivaldi AFTER Firefox. Am I a pos-furry?
Is Chromium
what would I do without my cross-platform history, passwords, and addon syncing? Mozilla is a godsend <3
I switched to Firefox two years ago and never looked back :) Google chrome is transphobic
