There is an extension called chrome mask on Firefox. It helps Firefox pretend to be Chrome on certain websites.

Is Ironfox on Linux too?

Vivaldi is not even an option for me. What else is in it other than the unique design? Even the built-in ad blocker is a joke that they never tried to improve. Just a painted chromium.

It’s not just about setting up my primary browser, but on a virtual machine, which I don’t even tweak most times or in the case of multiple users.

The sync feature only synced browser history, bookmarks, extensions, etc., but not any Firefox settings for me.

I know they need to make money to thrive and compete against the competitors, but there is too much to tweak after each update. And it’s really disturbing just because of how Firefox once was.

But by not doing what users need, how is it actually going to stay? Is money the only needed thing for Firefox to survive? Not users?

I don’t have any issue with Firefox trying to make some money by doing such things, but all these features are causing the system to use a lot of RAM too. Once we praised Firefox as being the less memory-hogging browser in Linux, but if it is going this way, not anymore.

I called it bloatware because nowadays it is filled with bloat features no matter what.

We said Vivaldi is closed source just because they didn’t publish some part (the unique design) of their code.

We call Brave Bloat because of its crypto stuff.

Now Firefox has promotional links, suggestions, tracking stuff, etc.; then why not call Firefox a bloatware?

By the way, if the contract with Google ended, then why is the default search engine still Google? Also, what is perplexity doing there?

The developer directly mentions “No warranties or guarantees of security or updates or even stability!” in the GitHub page.

As of now, Firefox for Android supports many extensions by default. I believe this browser is not essential anymore in any sense and is not published in any known app stores, so users are required to update it manually.

Because what’s the point of using a privacy browser in Windows, btw? The windows have always exposed everyone’s data without a curtain.

But that’s not my question. 😐

I know and actually am a signal user, but the reality is there is no one to chat with and no publicly available groups or chats to get interact.

Btw fb messenger is unencrypted. Right?

Actually i used it more when studying in school just because all friends use it. So that actually become an addiction to scroll and find something useful like mining for gold. That’s what i mean by addiction.

Years after getting into privacy communities and open source tools, discovered the evil patterns of meta. Then as you said i started to feel the opposite effect of addiction as you said.

What you commented? And why it’s useless?

My ISP just aggressively blocking VPN and running tor network 24*7 system-wide doesn’t make sense at all. To prevent network throttling I have to disable my VPN sometimes, and I only enable it when really needed which rarely bcz tor browser exist.
