I only use Chrome on my work computers for this reason. That being said, google steals the wrong information and it’s from a company, I know they’ve got deeper pockets than me to make them rue the day.
Yeah, the lack of extensions/add-ons for FF has always been what’s kept me from switching permanently. Hopefully more users on FF will mean more devs working on the add-ons. Losing chrome/chromium browsers is a major bummer
Sorry, I could’ve been clearer there. I wasn’t saying there were few add-ons. What I mean is there are extensions on chrome that aren’t on FF. I’ve looked for a specific type of add-on many times and not found it. I’m pretty dependent on some powerful extensions so it’s always been something holding me back from switching to FF. I even started using edge at work since it was faster than chrome but I could still use my fav extensions
@Fitik yep, there’s literally no excuse to be on a chromium based browser now.
You want your information to be sold? Use chrome.
You want to use the internet? Use literally anything else.
@BeAware @Fitik well there is my cue to switch
Welcome, I switched to firefox on my PC a few months ago, and regret nothing
@BeAware
I use several add-ons that are only available on chromium browsers.
Going to another browser would be fine for just surfing, but a large part of my online work would not be practical with a non=chromium browser.
I bet there are tons of people in the same boat.
@Fitik
@mloxton @Fitik wow. A ton of extensions work without changes across the two, which is the case for the ones I used.
The more you know…😬🤦♂️

At least we saw it coming I guess
Do people really think there’s not a lot of extensions for firefox? I’ve had no trouble finding tools that do even obscure things I need them to
