  • I’m not interested in anything based off Chromium, and I don’t really like the idea of going with a Firefox fork much either. You’re not only trusting them to actually care about your privacy and security, and you’re not even just trusting them to actually catch and fix all of Mozilla’s shenanigans as well. You are also trusting them to constantly stay on top of all the latest security patches. There aren’t really any Firefox forks I trust with all 3 of those things at once. Even if there was, there are certainly no forks of Firefox that have anything even remotely close to the capacity necessary to maintain a web engine on their own, so you’re still trusting Mozilla to keep Firefox updated and secure for your fork of choice to even have a chance.

    Until a new browser with a new engine comes along that actually lets me use the full uBlock Origin there’s not really any other option besides Firefox that makes sense. At least to me.


  • No, you don’t understand, it’s all just part of a 5D chess gambit. If they crash the economy hard enough, then it will be cheap to manufacture things in the US! Plus there won’t be any filthy foreigners coming to take the jobs, since the wages will all be worthless, so that’ll fix immigration as well! As an added bonus, the garbage, worthless wages will also make it so it’s cheaper to run understaffed call centers from the US as well, so you’ll never have to worry about hearing someone with an Indian accent after you’ve been on hold for 6 hours. Isn’t it great?
