100% It’s just somehow way more blatant for me with mobile as it’s BEEN like this… which propbably helped make Google more confident in doing the same thing with PCs 🤯
mobile has forks and adblockers. you can even use brave if you want. ironfox is one firefox, but i stopped using it, because it does something wierd with different websites, and and on reddit where i browse sparingly.
okay sit down this one is going to take a lot of brain. if a lot of hackers use it, the people who are good at computers, right? why would you not use the one that hackers use?
The fact there’s extentions on FF & it’s forks for mobile makes me sooo blown away anyone ever choses anything else!
Agree - I just don’t understand why you’d use anything else on a PC.

There are mobile clients of Firefox and related forks, FYI, not just on PC. Firefox and Fennec are probably the most popular on Android.
The IT equivalent of throwing a sabot onto the gears…
The forks of Firefox are just as good or better, and largely lack the AI bullshit.
Firefox is my go-to browser, but don’t trust Mozilla and be ready to switch to an alternative just in case Firefox gets enshittified too much.
“But my cousin told me the fox fire is used by hackers or something, and the Google one said it was faster.”
I shit you not, I used to work for a company (with no IT dept btw) that refused to use Firefox because they said it was “a trojan virus.”
What I think happened is one of their dipshit employees downloaded something they shouldn’t have and got a virus and the bosses blamed the browser.
Our IT exclusively allows us to use Edge. So yay.

most “regular users” dont know about the forks, or even extensions.
