If you value privacy, ditch Chrome and switch to Firefox now - eviltoast

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

    I’d love them to make the UI similar to what it was in 3.* times. Just something intended for humans who use the browser and not managers who do presentations.

      Part of why I’ve moved to Vivaldi tbh. It feels like Vivaldi is where Firefox should be at right now (besides the Chromium core).

          It’s unfortunate, but not much they can do. They have talked about a possible move to Gecko if retaining MV2 should be a priority, but it’s not like they can do it in one day and all.

        Vivaldi sucks for development imo, I would love to have tiled tabs and tab groups in Firefox though, there are some addons, but they are not that good.

      I think you might looking at the 3.x series with nostalgia goggles tbh. I’ve used Firefox since 1.0 and while 3.x design is functional, it looks way too dated. I much prefer the new design with tabs up top.

        I’ve used Palemoon, in this sense it’s convenient. Just the maintainers are a-holes, and also performance is not good, and compatibility too, so not anymore.

        Of course, Opera 9 is the pinnacle of browser UI design, nobody can argue with that, though I agree to give Netscape\Mozilla\Seamonkey the second place.
