    It would be nice to spend one day on Lemmy without seeing a half dozen posts telling me to switch to Firefox nor 100 comments on every post that’s even vaguely browser-adjacent about how ever since they switched to Firefox their life has been nothing but joy and rainbows

        I’m using arch and Firefox. But I keep chrome as a backup because I also have a ton of nest devices… Is your mind blown?

      If it makes you feel any better (it probably doesn’t), the same article was on reddit too. And hackernews also had it hit the frontpage.

      People who are on an open source reddit alternative like open source software and an open internet, holy shit!

      I’m using Firefox basically since it came into existence and my life is depressing and sucks. But at least I can browse the web without being tracked so hard by Google and others while trusting on an open source project whose first priorities are its users and not profit.

      agree, no matter what communities you browse, you just get repeatedly hit over the head with the same 5 topics.

      I didn’t switch to anything, I simply never stopped using Firefox as there was no pressing need to do so.
