    Before this thread turns into another circlejerk about how great Firefox is, I just wanna throw something out there; the whole point of the open web is that people use whatever browser they wish. I completely understand the push for Firefox right now, but everyone switching to one browser isn’t the answer. In fact that’s literally how we got to where we are.

    Use whatever software you want! These are your devices and I’m not gonna shame you for how you choose to use them. What’s important is that an open web is maintained so you have that choice.

      Except the issue is, if people use Chromium-based browsers, then Google still has all the power and has the monopoly. If people use whatever browser they want, and it happens to be a Chromium-based browser or even Chromium itself, then we end up back in the same position as we’re in now and nothing changes.

      That’s why everyone is recommending Firefox.
