      everyone knows how to use Chrome

      Bro it’s a browser. They’re fairly identical to the end users it matters for.

      Google = bad

      Isn’t Google trying to embed DRM into webpages to avoid track blocking as we speak?

        Yeah but I save 0.000097 seconds per page load. I did the math and it will give me approximately 2.3568 additional seconds to the length of my life.

        I did more math and that means I’ll have time for one more fap before I leave the world behind.

      there is no real upside to picking Gecko apart from Google = bad.

      AdBlock works better on Firefox. Firefox takes fewer resources. Firefox is open source. And that’s just off the top of my head.

      That makes a lot of sense when you are looking at the two today, but Firefox is older than Chrome. So they managed to become more advanced and take all the browser marketshare in some way.

          Chromium stays the best by developing new internet standards. Then big websites adopt them and Mozilla has no choice but to play catch-up if they want these sites to work well in their browser.
