Why the fuck does anyone use Chrome? It's shittier than Firefox in every way and is still a leaky memory hog
It's the only browser installed at my work and they won't give me admin access
Me 15 years ago, using Firefox Portable with an Internet Explorer container plugin so I can use trash web apps the organization refuses to update.
my partner has trouble doing some remote desktop stuff with firefox so they have to use chrome
Google meet screen share doesn't work for me on Firefox, tragically.
Probably intentionally too
Most definitely intentionally. Everytime I use Google meet it reminds me that because I'm using Firefox I can't use all the features.
Have you tried Chrome Mask? It spoofs Firefox as Chrome
A concerning number of the websites that don't work in Firefox, do work when you pretend to be Chrome.
Less tragic and more criminal, since Google uses its marketshare to essentially control the development of the web.
Firefox can literally do 99% of websites
The websites that don't work are actually just poorly designed or made by Google (not mutually exclusive).
Everyone knows what Google is, therefore its products are superior even when they’re dogshit. No one knows what Mozilla is
