Indeed, I'd love Seamonkey to be a viable alternative, for instance.

Nice detective skills. I have the opposite view about Brave/Mozilla. But fine, we can agree to disagree and still be (virtual) friends.

I said that I feel it's less good. I'm not going to tell people what they should use and I surely won't tell them to use the same browser I use. People should simply use whatever they prefer/suits them best.

I didn't know I was so evil that I'm doing the world a worse place just because I prefer a different browser. And I'm ideologically far form alt-right, btw.

OTOH, talking about corporate greed:

It doesn't matter and it's irrelevant here. I just despise Mozilla and their false morality. Use whatever you want.

Not Firefox.

Obligatory use Firefox

No way. Why should I feel obligated to use something I feel has inferior UX and UI than the browser I'm using now? For Mozilla's CEO to rais her wage (again): https://calpaterson.com/mozilla.html ?

You people are really delusional if you really think that Mozilla are the only good guys (or good guys at all, for that matters).

Inb4, unimaginative people downvoting just because they can't stand different opinions.

Brave. I was between it and Vivaldi. Finally settled on Brave.

Thanks, I already knew about the "unfuck" fix made by Black. Too late for me, anyway. I have realized that Mozilla doesn't care about feedbak or users' opinion (or the users at all...), so I don't feel like supporting them anymore.

By the way, the fix is fine. But it is a matter of principle: people shouldn't have to waste their time unfucking Mozilla's fuckups and users shouldn't have to waste their time trying to make a browser usable. So, congrats, Moz Corp, you've managed to lose an hardcore user.

Yup, the new FF UI is unbearable. And it was the last straw (among other things) that convinced me that it was time to switch to something else (after 20 years).

Faster, better UI, not managed by Mozilla (which I have come to dislike a lot), with a decent mobile client (unlike FF) and so son... By the way, I don't have to explain why I prefer a browser which is not FF (anymore... I've been on FF for about 20 years before leaving it around 2021, fed up with Mozilla and their nonsense development model). Mozillians should realize that people have different preference and make different choices. Tell Mozilla to improve their browser, instead of crying "chromium domination!" all the time. Exclusively Mozilla is to blame for each and every lost FF user.

I'm curious to know where "Chrome" was mentioned in my comment, instead.

Firefox does exactly the same: they have a lot of telemetry, they push their own services (pocket/vpn), they are in bed with Google and evil companies such as Amazon... What's the difference?

The article you mention is about the search engine, not the browser.

I'll keep using the browsers that serves me the best, and it's not FF. Thank you for your concern.

I may agree with him/her, I may not. But that's unreadable.

I doubt that any free service exists allowing apps. If you can shell out some 5$ per month, you may want to look into Hetzner Storage Share. You get 1TB space and you can install quite a lot of apps, create multiple users and so on.

Just disable score in your profile settings, man. That's what I did. Score has no point, really. If someone disagrees with you, they can either ignore you or expose their reasoning. Votes are useless.

• Linux (generally speaking)
• KDE as a whole
• Tusky
• Brave as a browser
• Bitwarden/vaultwarden

Ah, ok. I had misunderstood you at first. Now I get what you meant.
