So you’re saying they’d be allowed to sideload a discontinued chrome extension onto their work laptop but not allowed to download another legitimate browser? Yea…not buying it. Same with an educational setting. Pretty sure the person I reaponded to just simply is used to Chrome and doesn’t want change (which I do understand.)
Yes I know that but firefox is lacking features. An old chromium browser on mobile has the same amount of points in benchmarks as the newest firefox on desktop
Why wouldn’t you just use something like Firefox? Why the actual fuck would you opt to continue using Chrome?
They might simply prefer it, or be in an environment where they have no choice (e.g. office, education).
I’m a stubborn Firefox user but I have to say, this feels a little aggressive and not at all likely to convince anyone to switch.

I stripped it from all google crap, extra features, etc. Then the features I want I added in using an extension I wrote and maintain myself
Why would you use a browser like firefox when you could use brave which has built in ad blocks which firefox has not
You realize that Brave is Chromium and the „built in Adblock” is renamed ublock origin?
