thingsiplay ( @thingsiplay@beehaw.org ) 33•4 months agoWrong link. But Mozilla is not going to kill uBlock Origin too. Firefox supports the old MV2 and new MV3 version for extensions.
kbal ( @kbal@fedia.io ) 22•4 months agoToo long to read? I get it. Here’s the summary. Download Firefox.
Yes. One option is to download it from here: https://librewolf.net/
Fitik ( @Fitik@fedia.io ) 3•4 months agoThere’s also @zenbrowser@fosstodon.org , it’s firefox-based as well

Chloyster [she/her] ( @chloyster@beehaw.org ) 17•4 months agoHoping this could maybe help convince my friends who are just looking for a chromium alternative and won’t even consider firefox
Moonrise2473 ( @Moonrise2473@feddit.it ) 6•4 months agothis is assuming that mozilla won’t ruin firefox as usually by copying the bad parts of chromium

muhyb ( @muhyb@programming.dev ) 13•4 months agoJust a heads up, you posted this 5 times here and 3 times on lemmy.ml

Megaman_EXE ( @Megaman_EXE@beehaw.org ) 1•4 months agoOhh this might! Thank you :)
I never used those, but I have been using Winger for a while. Not a strong recommendation, but I am continuing to use it. I also heavily abuse tab searching and switching via the awesomebar.
Megaman_EXE ( @Megaman_EXE@beehaw.org ) 1•4 months agoHey thank you for the links! I’ll check em out :D
