I actually switched to chrome many years ago because firefox was abusing system resources and chrome was much lighter.
I did the same! I’m now given to understand that that was Google’s goal with Chrome - make the easiest-to-use and most lightweight browser to bring everyone in, then ramp up the trackers and bloat. I think I need to export my bookmarks and look into Firefox again…
You Should. Firefox has gotten so much Better. Not to mention all the literal BULLSHIT Google has done and will be doing with their browser.
The way Chrome works now, every tab is its own instance. Firefox, each window is its own instance.
I use Firefox, TOR, and even Edge sometimes these days for its nifty "Drop" feature. You'll never catch me using Chrome.
Meanwhile, there are dozens of us using Safari, and wondering what all the fuss is about.
All we needed was yet another chromium browser
I am not so sure about the "no bullshit" part.
It's more like less bullshit or different bullshit.
Shut up clippy
