I didn't know any better so around 2018-19 I switched to Chromium instead, at least it was FOSS but later I realized Chromium also had a lot of proprietary Google code, which made me look for alternatives so I switched to Firefox, after a long time.įirefox, while great, had plethora of issues. Most people already know this, it's always in the back of their mind but they never take any action. There's nothing redeeming about it other than performance, it seems to be a resource hog which might explain (or not) why it's the #1 in browser benchmarks everywhere.Ĭhrome has always had privacy issues, it's one of the least private browsers out there and this bothered me. I was a Chrome user first (go ahead, report me) and to be fair, Chrome is a nice stable browser but that's as far as it goes. I've been using this browser exclusively and during this time, I never bothered installing Chrome or Chromium which were my primary browsers before Chromium decided to kill sync functionality and Chrome just totally nuked my privacy. This week, I completed one year with the Brave Browser (and the Brave ecosystem: Brave Search, Brave Talk, BATs in general).
