    I must admit I ditched Firefox for a while when it was considerably slower than Chrome.

      The last time I used Chrome was a fork called Rockmelt 🥴 then moved to Maxthon, then K-Meleon, and settled on Firefox

        Rockmelt is a fork of Chromium, not a fork of Chrome. Same with Maxthon. Both Chromium and Chrome are maintained by Google, but Chromium is open-sourced while Chrome is not.

          Chromium is opensource yes. But it’s still harmful to the internet as a whole. There are still stupid ass google shit.

            Agreed. I didn’t mean to imply chromium is a good thing, which is why I said it is maintained by Google. Lots of browsers are forks of Chromium, even Microsoft Edge, but I thought they were implying these browsers were illegal forks hacked from Chrome, so I looked them up and found they’re just more chromium forks.

      I’m ashamed to say I did the same and even converted quite a few non-tech savvy people as well. :(
