Brave and chromium are still safe right ?
kattenluik@feddit.nl 1 year ago
Brave has never been a super safe browser, they’ve done some shady things. If you need Chrome just use Chromium with some settings and plugins.
I’ve never seen someone who actually genuinely needed Chrome though.
RagingNerdoholic@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
I don’t know, but who cares? What does anyone have against Firefox? It’s fast, has a massive extensions library, open source, secure, private … there’s literally no reason whatsoever not to use it.
flightless@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I mostly use Firefox but some Azure admin stuff only works in chrome or edge.
Engywuck@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Different choices? Bad UI? People like me that despise Mozilla? Fuck them.
BackStabbath@lemm.ee 1 year ago
People don’t like change. But I’m a hypocrite. I’ve tried switching to Firefox multiple times but I always go back, not even really sure why. I use it as a secondary browser these days.
5redie8@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
If you HAVE to use a blink browser, try Vivaldi. Brave is not the “privacy alternative” people seem to think it is.
pedz@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
No, Chromium will not be fine. Apparently Google have already pushed the code for their “integrity API” with Chromium on git.

Don’t know about bare Chromium, most likely no, Brave on the other hand will still support them last I heard
akippnn@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Still find it crazy when one company decides the internet’s fate and seems to act like they own the internet, simply because they have huge ass search engine & site crawler.
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmus.org 1 year ago
Monopoliew and lobby group do it all the time. Make laws to help their company stay in the lead.
This is in politics and effects all our lives.
BarterClub@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Just made the switch for my personal computers. All the extensions that I used are there except a few for work.
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmus.org 1 year ago
Awesome!

Even without the web integrity api , the tests for amazon hiring process at least in india require you to run windows/mac and chrome, linux and firefox are not supported !
mrvictory1@lemmy.world 1 year ago
This usually means “you can use Firefox but don’t ask support” instead of “you are not allowed to browse this website”. If the latter applies, user agent switchers exist.
c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Some companies do that, it’s not some new thing. We have to manage your devices and it’s nice to standardize so we don’t have to each learn every possible OS a user wants to install.
fietsbel@feddit.nl 1 year ago
Vote with your feet, move away of those cooperations…
coheedcollapse@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yep, moved from Edge to Firefox on all but my Windows Tablet. Only reason I’m holding out on the tablet is because the battery enhancements of Edge are too much to pass up on the device. Phone and PC though, straight to Firefox.
Brekky@lemmy.world 1 year ago
And then there’s me over here in the corner using Opera…

Her? Please enlighten
w2tpmf@lemmy.world 1 year ago
You mean red icon chrome?
Brekky@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Please clarify, I’ve ued chrome for years with no real knowledge of the pros/cons
KammicRelief@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Will Vivaldi still block ads, even though it’s on chromium?
BubblyMango@lemmy.wtf 1 year ago
If web drm becomes a thing, nothing, not even firefox and vivaldi will be able to block ads on websites that implement web drm.
KammicRelief@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Oh damn. Ok thanks!
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmus.org 1 year ago
It think it should be able to, since it is blocking ads on the browser side. Not sure though…
The problem, if I understand it, is when websites start only accepting certain browser ids.
Which will effect all non chrom. browsers.
covert_czar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 year ago
Already on firefox on pc and mobile
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmus.org 1 year ago
Awesome!

what?
PissinSelfNdriveway@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Sorry I didn’t make it ez enough for your kind … It would be great if 1 out of 5 mother fuckers didn’t post a random meme/pic about Firefox good, chrome bad.
fne8w2ah@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Anything but these two…
nostradiel@lemmy.world 1 year ago
To the fans of Firefox: It has almost as much telemetry and spying as Chrome. Rather use hardened Firefox or Librewolf.
Scolding7300@lemmy.world 1 year ago
But that’s only by default though, no? It’s not like it’s worse, it sounds to me like a slightly better option to go with the default than stay in Chrome
I_Miss_Daniel@kbin.social 1 year ago
I've just recently switched because Chrome yet again stuffed up all my task bar shortcuts (whatsapp, keep, calenders etc) so they all just loaded as tabs.
Firefox doesn't even have the ability to create task bar icons so for a long time I never bothered with it.
Found this extension which mostly gives that functionality. Not perfect as I have to share the URL links to the main instance to view them in a separate tab, but it's ok. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pwas-for-firefox/

Thanks, did not know this was a thing, Looks interesting!
theoware@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Then tell me please, how do I block ads on iOS with Firefox?
JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 1 year ago
You’d be able to if Apple didn’t block other browsers using extensions, or any rendering software other than webkit on their phones. Your fault for using Appl€.
theoware@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
I get your point of view, but I didn’t want to buy from Apple either. Before the purchase I knew how locked down iOS is. But since Apple basically owns the education space, I had no other choice
jvrava9@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 year ago
Adguard or DNSCloak with dnsforge.de
theoware@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Thanks, I checked the Adguard site again and configured it properly using the profiles and not just the per WiFi IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Now I get 71% on an adblock test. DNSCloak however didn’t do anything really, in the test I used it made no difference to a not blocking DNS
Skallamander@feddi.no 1 year ago
Fyi. The Ghostery private browser is awsome. This is based on 9 hours experience. Correct me if i’m wrong…
WobertsServices@lemm.ee 1 year ago
9 hours, now that’s stamina. I’m usually able find and use the material I need in 5 to 10 minutes.
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmus.org 1 year ago
Thanks, will check it out!

That Ad Block will become much less useful if google gets its way, even on iOS
47_alpha_tango@lemmy.zip 1 year ago
Why would an iOS app be affected by Google?
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmus.org 1 year ago
Awesome, teach us your ways.
I can help teach peeps I know to block ads.
Willer@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Shoulda put chrome on the tank and manifest 3 as the car
HawlSera@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Yeah I’m currently dling all my Google Drive stuff and looking into getting a new email address
I’ve been hearing too many horror stories about Google Accounts getting banned for no reason lately.

When ads pop up it might shift
Shokojunge@feddit.de 1 year ago
I just switched fron opera gx to Firefox. Has Firefox an integrated vpn?
thawed_caveman@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I don’t know, but Mozilla (the org that makes Firefox) also makes a VPN, and you can set it to apply to Firefox only.
Shokojunge@feddit.de 1 year ago
Thats cool, thank you
middlemanSI@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Search in extensions

Yesterday, I got some pop up when I opened chrome about blah blah Google…ads…blah blah, and promptly downloaded Firefox.
Yes it’s lame it wasn’t already on there, but it’s a shared / work computer and I try to keep new downloads to a minimum, but that was the last straw.
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmus.org 1 year ago
Awesome!
