Greetings! I have recently ditched google and went with privacy focused alternatives. Such as SearXNG, Invidious, Lemmy etc.

However, while i was using degoogled chromium, i cant install extensions.

Is there any way i can install extensions on Degoogled Chromium? (ik this isnt the right place to ask but eh)

Thanks a lot!

When website doesn't work on Firefox.

Chrome is the next Internet Explorer.

Pro tip: when a website doesn't work with Firefox, go download a user agent changer and switch it to chrome and watch the website work perfectly on Firefox lol

Oh? Recommendations? I just said I'm waiting to get to the library to bid on a couple of municipal projects bc of this "must use chrome" nonsense.

User-agent switcher is what I use. My only issue so far is that it messes up websites that use recaptcha or cloudflare "Are you a robot" challenges sometimes.

Thanks so much. I'll give it a try!
