I’m glad I’m in a position to basically never have to touch a chrome or chrome derivative for my work. It was a necessary evil to finally kill internet explorer, but these days it’s just hostile to its users.

I've been using Firefox since somewhere around 2008, it's been a dream the whole time.

Highly recommended

Tiny devils advocate, IF we can make it so ONLY Google can spy on us and ~~malware~~ adware can NOT spy on us would be an “improvement”. Google is a lot easier to target with regulation and stuff.

That said, I wouldn’t touch Google with a 10 foot pole.

Thanks for the reminder. I've switched to Firefox on my mac and iphone for personal use. I just need to move some web development stuff around so I can switch to Firefox on that too. I may even uninstall google chrome, but for now I've just taken it off the task bar.
