Fun Fact! Did you know that an external Blu-Ray drive and a copy of MakeMKV is only $115? That is equivalent to about 7 months of a standard Netflix subscription. Fascinating! 💸
Apropos to nothing, a library card is free! Did you know that your library will have almost infinite DVDs and Blu-Rays for you to check out anytime you want? Libraries are cool! 🤓
Just some totally random fun facts that I thought of for no reason at all... 🙃
What’s wrong with Firefox?!
I will get downvotes for this, but you asked:
Firefox is slow and glitchy, and lots of websites break or just perform worse than chrome.
Firefox used to have ~30% market share around 13 years ago, when it was better than the competition. The reason it’s dropped so significantly is because better options came along (chrome)
I understand the arguments about Google controlling the internet through chromium. I would love for Firefox to actually be the best browser, but it’s not.
And since Firefox users ignore these citisisms and act like it’s the best browser ever, there is not enough pressure for Firefox to actually fix these issues, since their users act like it’s already the best thing available and perfect in every way. It’s very similar to why Linux doesn’t catch on.
I have tried just about every browser available. I will use the one that performs the best and has the best features. Currently that is Brave, which is a great browser, but I would absolutely jump to Firefox if things changed and it became the best performing option.
