edit: just installed WaterFox and apparently they use bing, very interesting choice. I am not sure if I am for that, but heck I can change the default engine. So, I don’t care
also, I like Waterfox already uninstalled Chrome. I can’t believe I didn’t know this until now. Why can’t Firefox do this btw?
I know firefox is the only non-chrome browser out there, but how hard is it to make an extension for firefox along with chrome?
I cry myself to sleep knowing that the extensions I want are available on Chrome and not on Firefox. And it’s not going to get any better as Firefox is not gaining any users. Also, why the hell is this the case? I would pay to use Firefox! It’s FOSS and it has so many features, Idk, deserves to be no 1, but it’s f*cking dying!
There are some extensions I can’t live without and only for those extensions I am forced to keep Chrome on my computer. I don’t like Chrome and I don’t want Chrome but I want them extensions :(
Also, how safe is Chromium? Is it de googled? I think I might go for de-googled chromium + Firefox from now on. I will uninstall Chrome. I have disabled updates for it anyways!
Firefox uses the Web Extensions standard, just like Chrome. There are minor differences here or there but largely the same, tech wise.

Now this makes me mad, I mean, if it was super complex and you had to start from scratch, I can understand someone not doing the work to create it for firefox, but this doesn’t make sense :'(
To doing an fork you have to be ready to answers to issues, users, and you have to maintain it in the time. An fork isnt just an copy pasta dude.
