A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Install Firefox

No. I'd rather stop using the internet altogether. There are a lot of ways to block ads and MV2 is only one of them. Disregarding that MV3 adblockers are already a thing.

Yawn...

Edit: are you shilling for the same Corp. whose revenues depend on Google itself? LOL

While it is still possible to block some ads on chrome the remaining options are inferior. If that is enough for you go ahead.

It's been ages since I have seen an ad on my non-ff browser, desktop or mobile. And it's not Chrome. If you think that the only way to block ads is crappy FF+an extension, then PEBCAK.

How come you have such strong feelings against Firefox?

Not trying to start a fight, just an honest question. Choosing to rather stop using the internet all together seems extreme for a browser that I use daily, but maybe I'm missing something in your use case.

I strongly dislike Mozilla. They are as shitty as any other Corp., just with less money.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago (2 children)

So you unironically think they are worse than Google?

..really? I don't think you are being serious

This person pops up every time someone on Lemmy mentions web browsers to aggressively deride Mozilla for being mostly funded by Google (which is a fair point that I agree with) and then they turn around and recommend Chromium-based browsers.

I've tried and I found it difficult to engage in good-faith conversation with them.

Please, learn not to ask if you don't want to ear responses that you don't like. Bye.
