Fuck this site! Firefox devs are working their butts off to make a bbetter web for all of us and this site says not to use it?
As a Firefox contributor in my spare time I really feel offended. You would prefer a monopoly with tons more money and a lot less features? You would also prefer a shady centralized shitcoin funded by vulture capitalists?
Please recommend Firefox. It's the only honest browser out there. The servo team has been fired because we told our friends and family to use bloated spyware.

This is simply not true. They do not send the user browser history. Most data is processed on the client side https://gist.github.com/solso/423a1104a9e3c1e3b8d7c9ca14e885...

Some legacy addons are poorly written. Have you tried a fresh Firefox profile with only uBlock Origin on it?

Welcome back! There are a lot more things in the pipeline. V57 in November will be crazy fast, even better than the current one.

Use Firefox ESRv52 with XUL support until June 2018 https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/ Pale Moon started a fork of the current XUL-based Firefox. Hope it will be popular. I hate XUL but a lot of people love it. I hope it will live with Pale Moon. Why would you use Vivaldi? A browser is a very personal tool, why use proprietary software for it?
