3·2 years agomost people don’t give af which browser they use. they trust the brand of google because the search engine was “the best” so they moved from firefox/edge over to chrome thanks to an advertising blitz and deals with vendors to put chrome on laptops, at the time was a better browser and much more stable since it silo’d tabs into processes (which is what almost all browser do now).

3·2 years agoVery little though, almost all that code has been replaced/rewritten over the years along with all the new stuff that has been added.

1·2 years agothere was a while there if you used more than a few extensions you’d have a lot of issues. Also there were tons of issues over the years where there were some massive memory leaks. It has gotten much better since then with quantum and electrolysis.

1·2 years agothat’s fine, we’ll find a way. I mean they could start some kind of clumsy certification thing, but I’ll just move on and open up brave when I absolutely have to, otherwise they get no attention from me. I bet ublock traffic is less than a half a percent of their traffic.

11·2 years agoyou won’t get one “they heard it” . I prefer firefox because I’ve used it for almost 2 decades and know it inside-out, but brave is solid too. As long as it remains open source I’m fine with it , and it’s my “chrome backup” when a page is designed for chrome

2·2 years agoublock is not slow, the difference between it and rust is insignificant if you look at page load time data with a similar set of block lists.

1·2 years agoFor a few years there I was on the border, extensions used to make firefox extremely unstable, along with it being primarily multithreaded rather than multiprocess. Now it’s much better. I know a lot of people don’t like what the “quantum project” did, but I love it. Now a tab might crash because of some shitty plugin or something but the rest is fine.

2·2 years agoWhatever their “intent” it fucking dumb and an invasion of privacy with no real justification. Governments don’t need to see what I’m doing on the internet.

51·2 years agoyou can do the same with firefox, you can have hundred of tabs open there as well, it has the same capability to suspend tabs.
There’s no reason not to buy a brother or canon if you need a good laser printer to make hard copies of stuff. Not everybody wants to back everything up to the cloud and like hard copies or need it for their business.
