[QUOTE="Stopspying, post: 1072134, member: 69368"] Its not just trying to convince people to use a more privacy/security-focussed browser, its security and privacy online that I fail to convince people that are close to me to try using. Eyebrows rise when I start talking about this. But, I won't let them convince me to go over to the other side! I get around this by spoofing what browser I'm using, the Chameleon extension works well for me on this - [URL='https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/chameleon-ext/?utm_source=addons.mozilla.org&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=search']Chameleon – Get this Extension for 🦊 Firefox (en-GB)[/URL] Yeah, an optimist! I do hope you're right on FF surviving, Firefox will be 20 this year, I've been using it for most of that time, or derivatives of it. Currently Librewolf is my primary browser with Firefox second in the lineup. I've tried many of the better known alternatives, Edge and Chrome are evil, Brave, Vivaldi have their plus and negative points IMO, I've never really hit it off with either. I have others like Ungoogled Chromium that I want to like but never quite reach that point. Firefox may have some issues, it may not be the fastest, but I must be slowing down if that is the case as I can't always keep up with it. I'm sticking with it despite some of the dubious 'innovations' and policy decisions. [/QUOTE]
