  • its far better to use a browser which was made from ground up to support user privacy and features rather then patching a browser which was made to compromises their user privacy

    Unfortunately we don’t have that yet, since Librewolf is a fork of Firefox as well.

    Also, if I had to guess by the number of forks, Gecko is way harder to fork than Chromium.

    I want to like Firefox, both as normal user and as web developer, but something about it keeps bugging me. The UI feels sluggish, sites seem to be slightly less performant, and I can’t seem to get used to it.

    I feel the exact same. I use linux with a tiling window manager and when I change format, Firefox just starts twitching like it’s trying to give me an epileptic seizure while chromium browsers do it just fine.

    Also, sometime ago I tried to compare Chrome (when I still used it) and Firefox side by side with the same extensions opening the same websites and Firefox always took a bit more ram.





  • And the important thing to understand about american libertarians is they are largely fascists.

    So let me get this straight, the people that are always complaining that the government should have less power and interference into people’s lives and want guns for regular people in case the government starts oppressing them are aligned with… checks wikipedia “a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.”?

    I don’t agree with the libertarian view and think it’s way too ignorant of the nature of Man and society, but I think that in your ramble of buzzwords you just created a very cute incoherent contradiction.
