Today I removed Firefox (sad day)

Sad story ahead

Today I fully removed Firefox as my main browser. It's banned from all my devices from now onwards. I used Firefox as my only browser since I was 10 years old. Which is 24 years now (24 years!). I loved

Firefox trying to be a good alternative to Chrome, promoting open-source and showing the world that privacy does matter. Sadly not anymore, recently after Mozilla hostile CEO takeover and moving the company forward to an advertisement company. Neglecting privacy. And fully want the other way around, tracking user data sending back to Mozilla. And at the same time Mozilla has also became an ads company just like Google, so there is no difference anymore really. And it only goes down-hill from here.

Furthermore, Mozilla is spending more money in AI companies then in the product Firefox itself. So..

Luckily, there are plenty great Firefox forks! Look into some of them yourself and really pick an alternative rather sooner than later:

  • LibreWolf
  • Floorp (I went with Floorp, thus far it's great!!!)
  • Waterfox
  • Mullvad

Just pick one, anything... from above list!

I know, it's sad. It's very sad, after 24 years I didn't went to leave Firefox, but this last moves was the straw that broke the camel's back. I'm out, cya at the fork!
