If you value privacy, ditch Chrome and switch to Firefox now (www.fastcompany.com)

With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

I'm ready as soon as there is a copy of the vertical tab implementation from Edge. Until then, you'll have to pry Edge from my cold dead fingers.

I use Firefox, but I do run into a lot of problems with sites not working correctly. Makes me want to switch to Brave occasionally.

Chrome is everywhere and everything is built on it or optimized for it.

This browser monoculture stuff will surely bite our asses someday. I just hope Firefox (and its derivatives) would still exist to take chromium refugees when Google show its true color in the future.

I personally use brave since a year, and it work like a charm.

Bought a new Pixel 7 Pro and wanted to use Firefox but scrolling was just so bad, lots of stuttering. Using Brave now and am very happy with it. You have to turn off some sneaky shit initially though.
