    I use Librewolf with a slightly edited Cascade CSS theme, plus the Catppuccin color palette. Works great and looks nice.

      Yeah, I’ve used websites like that. So I told Firefox to spoof my user agent to be chrome and now I just use those websites anyway.

      I’m not interested in handing my data over to Palantir any more than I am to Google, so I’m not going to use Brave.

      I do the same. Some websites will not work claiming Firefox is not supported, but do some user agent spoofing and suddenly it works just fine. Just goes to show it is not actually the web engine that’s the problem.

        The only problem is it isn’t based on Chromium tho. That just doesn’t suffice anymore.

        I was an avid Firefox user for years and librewolf user for a year after that, but unfortunately, FF hasn’t been able to keep up in terms of web standards.

        More and more I kept having pages just not work. I ended up having to install a backup Chromium-based browser bc critical websites like my banking and loan sites only worked on Chromium-based browsers. Eventually, I caved. If I had to have a second,Chromium-based browser anyway, I might as well just use that for everything.

        I wanted to not use Chromium, but FF has lost the war. Chromium runs the show now. No more fighting back. Google owns the internet.

        So now I’m on Brave, and honestly it’s way better than Librewolf these days. I would recommend any librewolf user switch over to that.

        This is all kinds of wrong. Fuck Brave and fuck Chromium.

          I believed the same things… in around 2014. By internet standards, that’s an absolutely ancient perspective, and absolutely untrue these days. My main browser is Floorp, a Firefox fork, and I’ve found a total of one website that actually doesn’t work, which was just a huge directory listing.

            I actually thought that was interesting. What I really didn’t like is not being able to just set a theme, and when I finally got to the color picker thing it just wouldn’t let me set proper full black (oled). Once themes are easier and it has tree style tabs (like sideberry - not those folders) I would consider switching again.

            I thought it was cool too, but I have Heimdall running on a docker container. I wanted to be able to easily get to that, and it felt like the default behavior of Zen was getting in the way.

                Friend, they’re not “standards” if only one browser supports them.

                Also, you should probably switch from Brave to literally anything else.

                  Well it really depends on your use case because as a daily driver I never see any buggy page. Not even the enhanced protection thing is blocking pages

                      Just answer honestly,
                      While floorp has a more flowy and relaxed security model that still allows interaction with local files and is just overall easier to get into, I also like Zen for it’s peace of mind, with the ability to suspend execution of javascript on page load turned on as a default feature, however it can be quite uptight a what does and doesn’t constitute valid html

                          In his newest (and worst) How Do You Do Fellow Kids moment, Mark Zuckerberg launches the Poob service, accessible exclusively through the Metaverse. What does it do? Fucked if we know.

                            It’s weird how i still haven’t run into any of those sites after years of using firefox. For me it not being chromium is a positive, especially with this recent adblock nonsense that google is pulling.
