You don't get it. Only what they find funny is funny and only what they think is biggoted is actually biggoted.

Any other world view other than theirs is extremely inferior to the point of being an insult to exist.

companies like Fairphone and Framework and system76 have proven that it's possible to support devices for a very long time when the bigger manufacturers told us it wasn't possible, or even if it were possible that there was no market demand for seven years of software support. In 2016, sustainability and longevity were not words associated with new tech. They showed us the way.

I didn't see the video with that much attention, but I'm pretty sure at some point he said something along these lines.

its far better to use a browser which was made from ground up to support user privacy and features rather then patching a browser which was made to compromises their user privacy

Unfortunately we don't have that yet, since Librewolf is a fork of Firefox as well.

Also, if I had to guess by the number of forks, Gecko is way harder to fork than Chromium.

Yes... But they can modify it like they did when they suppressed Manifest V3 and like they will for the new web drm.

What if I told you... this isn't a Google product?

Idk, I use gnome with pop shell tiling and Firefox is the only program that does it.

I'm also tired of Firefox's bullshit pushing sponsored websites and Pocket and (before) injecting an extension to everyone to sponsor Mr. Robot.

But I don't see you complaining about that.

I don't see why making money needs to be at all a part of using a piece of software.

It doesn't...?

When you install Brave the crypto is opt-in, and to hide it permanently is literally 2 clicks.

I want to like Firefox, both as normal user and as web developer, but something about it keeps bugging me. The UI feels sluggish, sites seem to be slightly less performant, and I can't seem to get used to it.

I feel the exact same. I use linux with a tiling window manager and when I change format, Firefox just starts twitching like it's trying to give me an epileptic seizure while chromium browsers do it just fine.

Also, sometime ago I tried to compare Chrome (when I still used it) and Firefox side by side with the same extensions opening the same websites and Firefox always took a bit more ram.

Because it was popular enough for it to make sense...?
