Much more flexibility in the way of custom themesz extensions and i think its called custom js or something its been a while but arkenfox is an example of one and I love all the different forks which while I'm not gonna use I'm happy that exists. Hate it on android like though I use cromite (bromite fork)

Because Microsoft and google are abysmal companies.I don't trust either of them (he typed, on an android phone - at least its been ROMmed)

Because sometimes I need to use Not Safari, and the alternatives are too awful to consider.

Because Edge broke JSON files - I couldn't search through an open JSON file anymore, because Edge decided to only partially load the file.

That's nice and all, but stop fucking with my plain text. If I want to fuck with it, I can use my extensions, WHICH THEY DISABLED/BLOCKED...

So yeah, back to Firefox, and it's been fine.

Absolutely. I only use chrome for d&d stuff because some specific formatting gets screwed up on Firefox.

Honestly, even though I want to say it's for security or something, I use Firefox because of habit. Ive used it ever since I got my first PC over a decade ago and don't remember the reason I switched in the first place.

Its the default on my Linux distro

What‘s the alternative if you try to avoid google?

The desktop browser was better than IE back in the days and I like how they market/position themselves. Nowadays I switch between Chrome and Firefox just to have different containers (private and work), and yes I know this is also somewhat native supported in Firefox.. but it still felt unintuitive to me.

I recently started using Firefox on Android because of the new privacy sandbox strategy (which I'm not against per se, I don't know all the details yet though), but I must say.. it feels a bit buggy and seems to suffer from input lag. Too bad, the desktop experience is flawless.

Its not Google

For the price of mild inconvenience in some cases I get to add a tiny little bit of resistance against chromium monopolistic rule.

Writing Firefox extensions sucked.

I haven't tried web extensions.

I actually stopped using it a few years ago because of a weird glitch I kept encountering where it would forget how to render non-standard symbols on websites (I forget the technical description, it's been years). Sites like Twitter became neigh unusable because I couldn't tell what any button was.

With all the recent problems, I know I want to switch back. Just haven't had the time and patience to do it.

Question for those who use unlock origin on Firefox, does the browser hang when loading pages when you first turn it on, I’m having that problem.
