I’m still on Firefox both on desktop and mobile. The killer feature for me is self-hosted synchronization of bookmarks, passwords, etc. but it really doesn’t look good. And to be honest I really don’t understand why other people use Chrome.

I use Firefox on my personal devices but I’m almost forced to use chrome for work because things like Google Meet don’t work properly in Firefox (because Anti-Trust authorities are a joke).

You are using that old python2 app to self-host it? I really wish Mozilla would finally complete that new version they are working on for some years now, as the current one is pretty much abandoned and only works when wrapping it in a container with really old and likely insecure dependencies.

Yeah, it’s bad that it’s still python2 I agree, but at least they don’t break any functionality, I know low bar but anyway :D

Makes you wonder what Mozilla themselves are running for synchronisation. 🤔

I still use chrome for certain things because of features Firefox doesn’t have, but my daily driver is definitely Firefox and I don’t find myself missing much at all.

im not really sure anymore which browser you can pick these days. Used a long time chromium but it got botched some years ago on certain features. Brave is also not really what it was anymore privacy wise and firefox is currently the best of all available it seems. Mobilewise there is Bromite - which is really helping to get a bit more control on all the data mongering on android.

Bromite is abandoned!

One reason more to use firefox :)

I, rarely, use anything else (Firefox Developer Edition).

Good :) but I wish fenix was as great as the desktop version
- Chris Remington ( @remington@beehaw.org ) 3•3 years ago
I’m an Apple user so I wouldn’t know :(
- Gamerie ( @Gamerie@feddit.de ) 1•3 years ago
Ok. In that light, fenix is great :D apple’s restrictions just suck
- Chris Remington ( @remington@beehaw.org ) 1•3 years ago
Apple isn’t gatekeeping like they used to. You’d be surprised how much they’ve relaxed over the past 5 years.

That’s called Protectionism for infant industries. Apple choked every app and company in the beginning. Even now you can’t install another sms app, there is no proper file system, you still can’t sideload apps, etc…

Just realised this post is a year old lol. Firefox is okay. Use it as my main browser in windows and apart from being unable to reliably load yahoo finance for some reason its doing just fine.
