whataboutism? two competing companies can be bad

Yeah but if you need to use a browser are you seriously going to support Google over Mozilla?

[–] bugbear@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

no, but we weren't talking about that. the topic was "why more people don’t use Firefox" I'm replying to you in Librewolf. I still don't have to like Firefox, nor recommend it to people at this point.

Forks are also fine. But the phrasing often can come across in a way that supports chrome

I don't really care. :)

Edit: There are other options than just Chrome and Firefox even without the forks. Most people just don't wanna use them.

Sure and some of those are coo. But if you can't even get people moving to firefox, good luck with the more obscure ones.

Not trying to make anyone change their web browser, so we all good.
