you can do it by downloading this version of chrome
JUST FU***** CHANGE BROWSER ALREADY! Why you have to be so stupid to use Chrome?
According to the people I know, “It’s better” because they won the browser speed race without looking at anything else.
You should see people hanging onto windows instead of switching to any other OS…
Using an adblocker on chrome is the funniest shit, that’s like using a condom to fuck a sheep.
Good job using a condom, but what the fuck are you doing fucking a sheep?
Just use Firefox. Its people’s fault that it got so bad because you basically gave them a browser monopoly
You can still block ads while shoving your data up Google’s ass, here is how.
Don’t use Chrome
Just ditch chrome. Done.
That is impossible for many people for the same reason why they still on Xitter, etc. They believe, that with enough willpower, the people ruining our software infrastructure can be convinced for the better. And also many people still believe that if you criticize their “meme browser” made by the cool “don’t be evil” company, you’re a Microsoft shill forcing them to use IE, that is buggy and slow.
It blows my mind how many people use chrome over edge thinking that they are making super smart choice. I feel like I was still seeing memes on reddit making fun of Edge over Chrome.
And here I am, seeing both as equivalent. I honestly don’t see a meaningful difference between Edge and Chrome…
To be clear, that’s exactly what I mean. I use Firefox, but I find the edge vs chrome debate amusing.

Which I find absolutely hilarious, as Edgemium is a better browser than chrome. I still use Firefox first and foremost, but at work when I have to use something else, it performs better and has better features IMO.
They’re the same browser though. They use the same rendering engine, same JavaScript engine, etc. There are more similarities than differences.

They actually aren’t the same browser, since MS rips out some stuff and adds their own. Including features I like tree style tabs.
It’s a similar and derivative browser, but they aren’t the same.
There are more similarities than differences.
You can say the same about tons of things, but the differences are what matters. You and I share more similarities than differences, just like the browsers, but we aren’t the same person.
They’re the same in the ways I care about, which is rendering and javascript engines. I’m a developer, that’s what matters to me. I rarely interact with extra features, and I can get most of what’s unique about a given browser with extensions.
Right, the rendering engine is the same, that’s still not the browser. Again, just because it’s a derivative browser doesn’t make it the same browser.
I kinda think it does. I use a gecko browser as my main, and I use a chromium browser as my backup. I don’t use most of the default features, I just need a handful of extensions, and those are available everywhere.
So to me they’re pretty much the same. Brave is a little different since it embeds an ad blocker, but besides that, the rest of the chromium browsers are equivalent for me.
I use Firefox when ads are overrunning my screen
just install firefox ffs.
My first web browser was Mosaic version 1. I ran version 2 alpha for a bit.
Netscape started doing things better so I moved over to it.
Over the years I’ve bounced around from Netscape, Firefox, Opera, Chrome, and a few others (the MS browsers never really swayed me). It seemed like every year I’d be moving to a new platform or version. I usually have 3-4 browsers installed on my computers at any given time.
Once Chrome blocked uOrigin I moved over to Firefox. Easy.
The point is, to get the best (and safest) browsing experience, you have to be flexible. If you just use the thing that “came with the computer” you’re going to have a bad time. If Chrome wants to break your browsing experience, ditch it.
Is this actually easier than installing librewolf?
Nope. It also sounds like it will repeatedly break after updates.
Get use firefox.less intrusive
“While users can still make uBlock Origin work, it will eventually stop working altogether, and no method will be able to mend it. Therefore, users will have to either switch to Manifest V3-based blockers, such as uBlock Lite, or move to browsers that still support Manifest V2. Firefox, Opera, and Brave, for example, do not plan to ditch those extensions just yet.”
Just fucking switch already!
God, this is like those people who still insist on running Windows 7
Tbf, win7 was the best os i ever used. Only to be royally fucked by win8, win10 and win11. Oh how it has fallen…
Hmm, openSUSE Tumbleweed has been the best OS I’ve ever used, and it’s still available. Windows 7 was marginally better than Vista because they fixed the broken stuff, but it still had all the problems of a Windows OS.
Except all problems of a windows system werent on win7. Bloat? Minimal, was mostly the theme that was heavy but could be disabled. Forced updates? Didnt exist yet. Hardware requirements? A running pc. Half assed new ui? Didnt exist yet. Confusing configs that were all over the place? Nope, started in win8 and 10. Software comparability? 90% hell yes.
Win7 was a polished vista, with loads of bloat removed, performance improvements and 1000% more stable.
Win8 started screwing with shit and moving stuff partly and it went downhill from there.And im also comparing it to os’ of the time. Clearly with todays tech id pick a linux over win7 anyday, but in those days win7 was king
Nah, in those days I picked Linux. In fact, I got a “win7 ready laptop” and still picked Linux over it. Windows 7 was better than Vista, but it didn’t fix the other issues I had w/ windows.
I honestly think Win10 was better than Win7.
Those people are based Tbf, mfs are making their own drivers and everything.
*Windows XP.
lol noooooooooooo
Horrible from a security standpoint. A good step into the future, but honestly let it go.
Chromium? More like copium. /j
Just fucking switch
Can’t switch if you never left ;-)
