With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

@Frostwolf I switched to Firefox a few years ago. Using Google Chrome on a low end Windows 10 laptop was a nightmare.

I use Firefox because I always did and because I don't want to support the Blink (Chromium web engine) monopoly that even Apples Webkit can barely keep up with but please don't think Mozilla (Firefox owners) are accaptable by any means, they just aren't as bad in my mind!

Would be awesome if my company allowed to run anything but edge....

Any browser really. I missed the browser wars of old where everyone is free to use and defend their browsers.

I never switched to Chrome. I didn't do it when it first came out and people were shitting their pants in excitement. I didn't use chrome in the middle of the 2010s when no one even knew about Firefox. I still don't use it. I never switched from Firefox.

I have been a loyal Firefox users for years but I would lie if I didn't say I get tired of websites not working.

I've been using brave these days. I really like it, I have it installed across all my devices.

I'm ready as soon as there is a copy of the vertical tab implementation from Edge. Until then, you'll have to pry Edge from my cold dead fingers.
