Firefox is a privacy-friendly alternative to Chrome, using its own browser engine (Gecko) and offering strong privacy protections compared to Chromium-based browsers.
Despite its benefits, Firefox relies on Google for funding, raising concerns about its future, and some recent privacy decisions have drawn criticism.
Switching from Chrome to Firefox is simple, and alternatives like Mullvad Browser offer even stronger privacy for those seeking more protection.

I appreciate the effort but posting this in here is pointless as most people in here are already in Firefox or any other browser that is not Chrome itself.

Hey, it shows up in people's "All" feeds as well. I'm not subscribed here and I saw this post (but I do also already use Firefox).

Not subscribed and saw the post. Still a Chrome user but probably need to bite the bullet and move over.

With the deprecation of UBlock Origin, it's time.

I'm waiting for adblockers to stop working, or maybe when I have the time, but I have way too much shit going on to switch just now.
