        Maybe some? I’ve never been able to convince a “normal” person to install an ad blocker and it baffles me. Click the install button, please, I’m begging you T_T.

          Those people subsidize our ability to use ad blockers, imagine if everyone used uBlock and ad companies started cracking down on it.

        The amount of people that don’t even know what an adblocker is massively overshadows those who do.

      You’re right I’m not migrating. Because I moved to Firefox quite some time ago. No regrets, excellent browser.

      I was an avid Firefox user for many years. Switched to Chrome for a while when it got good. But I knew it wouldn’t last - google would find ways to break it. So I switched back to Firefox a few years ago. Haven’t looked back.

        I have always been a FF user and now I am using librewolf as my primary and FF as secondary , and except my family ( we run linux at all home PCs) , i dont know many who use FF or even adblockers tbh ! I remember telling a frnd that adblocks exist and he was flabbergasted , did not install one tho !

          Lol, oh don’t get me started on ads. I loathe ads to the point where I have a router-level ad blocking to filter them out (I don’t use it but piHole but that’s a great option for the DIYer out there). That combined with my FF uBlock origin extension and I see very few ads anywhere online

    I’ve been using Firefox basically since it was released. I tried Chrome but never really liked it.
