If you're still using Chrome for performance reasons:
- Firefox is now faster than Chrome out-of-the-box
- Firefox uses less memory than Chrome
- Contrary to Chrome, Firefox does not restrict Ad blockers, which will make your browsing experience much faster (and safer).

@bladecoder and what about Waterfox? ;)
Show threadChristophe B. Jul 28, 2023
@nitrofurano Never tried that one and I'm not convinced it's better than a tweaked Firefox (also it seems to be based on an older version of Firefox)
Show threadnitrofuranoJul 28, 2023
@bladecoder so, which Firefox alternatives (based on Firefox and drm-free) would you recommend?
Show threadChristophe B. Jul 28, 2023
@nitrofurano I never tested any Firefox derivative. Why do you need one?
Show threadnitrofuranoJul 29, 2023
@bladecoder i can't remember precisely, perhaps from Firefox developers (and Debian packagers as well, i wonder why...), like lack of transparency or stuff like that, leading to my total lack of trust - anyway, if Firefox were that good it wouldn't needed to be "tweaked" (cleaned) anywhere

@nitrofurano

Just because some randos feel that *they* need to tweak firefox does not mean that firefox 'needs' to be tweaked.

@Spicewalla @bladecoder what i think is that, before using a software we should trust on it - i don't trust Firefox, and i think i'm not alone... :S

@nitrofurano

Then why would you trust some randos?
