      IT guy at the company I work for wouldn’t let me download Firefox for “security reasons”. He said I had to choose between Edge and Chrome and if he had it his way, he wouldn’t even let anybody use Chrome.

        Well with over 30 years in this profession I mustb hereby inform you that your IT guy is an idiot and should consider a different profession, something unrelated to IT or computers…

      Also, that twitter and facebook stuff, uh. Yeah, that’s also pretty much exploded exactly as foretold. The googlez is being evil. The list goes on, and yet all of those companies literally run the world because people continue using them.

    If you haven’t moved already, I recommend Firefox or one of its forks.

    I rly like firefox, I have been using for the last two years.

      I switched to Waterfox on desktop when Firefox threatened to move to “AI-First”. Firefox walked back that shitty decision when they saw the user backlash from it, but I never saw a compelling reason to switch back.

    I’m sure Chrome users will find another excuse to not switch just like the last few dozen times Google screwed them over.

      That, or use a chromium fork that ignores manifest v3 and supports manifest v2.

    Firefox, Librewolf, Mullvad Browser. Just pick one.

    If you want to stay with the blink engine, Vivaldi or Brave.

    Quit Chrome.

      Don’t recommend Mullvad Browser to people who just want a regular daily driver browser unless you want them to freak out and never try anything again.

      To anyone uniformed - Mullvad Browser, while technically Firefox based, is actually a fork of Tor, and by default wipes everything on exit, as well as expects users not to tinker with it or install any addons to avoid fingerprinting.

      You can pick all of them, and for different purposes. Better to use different personas on different browsers, on different OS’s.

          Try Zen, it’s a fork. Interface is much cleaner.
