If you value privacy, ditch Chrome and switch to Firefox now

With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

i still have no clue why people use chrome for the past 5+ years, there's better chromium alternatives if you still want to use chromium for some reason, and there's firefox which doesn't support the chromium monopoly, works really well and doesn't try to restrict you from using adblockers
The lack of Google Sync on alternatives seems to be a major draw. With that said, Firefox Sync works well. I just wish their Android app were better (Fennec F-Droid would be perfect if it allowed fully sideloaded add-ons from local storage and a true OLED black option).
Moistly ui issues that Vivaldi. Plus on most linux distro you get a file picker tgat can't show thumb nails
Only the GNOME/GTK file picker did not display thumbnails for a while, but this functionality has now been available in all file pickers for some time.
Well the GNOME team fixed tge newest version but that didn't cause all the distros to start using it. My version of Firefox still used the old one a few days ago even when my otger browsers use a modetn dolphin file picker
I meant that most major distributions had KDE available for those who were bothered by the lack of thumbnails.
Yeah i use kde and it doesnt alwaus fix the problem
?
also file pickers that show thumbnails on linux from what i've seen are extremely commonplace
File picker and file and file manager are differential. Just a few days i swapped to Firefox and itcstill used the old gnome file picker even though other vrowsers use they dolphin one on my distro.
Their point is probably that the UI doesn't look like what they're used to with Chromium-based browsers.
To be honest, that's kept me from using Vivaldi in the past, too.
