chrome edge started out strong and now is sliding into "suck" territory with each new monetization idea.

yeah, despite being real happy to get on the edge train, and having genuinely found it a good place to be, they are getting to the point where i am genuinely thinking about switching elsewhere. but ofc not to firefox, my general preference is for things to work, and obviously not to chrome, less visible poo poo but googles tracking is deeper and goes into a worse pile, so i am on to the ones i can't spell. maybe vivanti or brake or something.

infernal machines posted:the oss experience admittedly that does suck, although there are some that will auto-update (if you're willing to trust the sources, which to be clear isn't a great idea) otherwise building it yourself really isn't that difficult. it takes a while at first of course but once you get the initial build going pulling changes and recompiling is pretty quick obviously that will not work for everyone though

if i had a specific need for chromium i would probably use that, but i can just set up a work profile in firefox. the only specific use case for edge was 1080p+ streaming in netflix, and welp.

yeah, i honestly can't think of much that doesn't work in firefox. the rendering speed is pretty similar too, but it depends on what you're doing (poo poo like webgl will definitely be slower, wasm kinda depends, etc.) for just web browsing its fine though

installing websites as apps so they show up on their own window/icon/etc is nice, so I don't have a barrage of tabs which get forgotten.

you can kinda do that with firefox, and chrome definitely, but it's probably not as slickly integrated as using edge would be (i assume, i don't use edge or standalone web apps in general really)

if a site doesn't work in firefox and takes more than two clicks in noscript, it probably isn't worth using

They load faster and operate 100x better in a normal browser tab. Which completely defeats the purpose of adding them to channels!

honorlock only works with chrome so i have to keep a copy installed on my work laptop but that's all it gets used for. firefox with ublock origin has been needs suiting for quite a while, and i don't see any reason to change.
