Its the only thing making is a good choice, while people choose Brave,
TorBrowser or Librewolf instead. Come and join the discussion. Firefox needs to
have some courage. Get rid of all those fake funding by Ad companies. Block Ads
and trackers by default. Actually. Dont use damn Google as that contract will
run out anyways. Chrome is the Google browser. Firefox simply offering nothing
more (on the outside) than it. What do you think? Do you use Firefox out of the
Box? Or another browser?
But also keep in mind that it couldn’t exist without Firefox/Mozilla existing. A world in which more people use Firefox over Chromium-based browsers is a better world.
ehhh debatable, mozilla still gets a lot of funding from google so they’re not as independent as you think. A better world wpuld be one where qtwebkit based browsers, chromium based browsers and firefox based browsers have the same market share.
Unfortunately Apple stole qtwebkit and drove it into the grave so there’s little chance of that actually happening :(
I still hold out hope though, and try to use Falkon whenever possible
A Mozilla dependent on Google seeing value in Firefox sending searches their way is at minimum as good as one in which Mozilla doesn’t exist and everybody uses Chromium-based browsers, by definition - and in practice, way better.
But yes, more non-Blink engines in use in general would also be a better world. Alas, that, too, isn’t the world we live in.
I still don’t understand why Microsoft dropped Blink. Surely there’s nothing for them in letting Google own the browser engine, and it’s not like they cannot afford to keep developing their own. Weird.
