Everyone talks about Firefox. And that's cause Firefox is good and hands down the best. But I've been using Vivaldi which is chromium based for years. Anyone have any opinion on Vivaldi?
Vivaldi is based on Chromium. So it basically gets placed in the same field as Chrome and Edge.
Glad I switched to firefox when it became apparent google wants to take away control to shove more ads in our faces.
I thought they already did that.
Firefox is a great browser to switch to, it has a vast variety of customizability in configuration. It is a very flexible browser and it has helped me a lot in the past few years.
As a further suggestion on top of it, do use a custom user.js to harden your browser even more, set up your DNS Resolver to use Quad9 or any other private DNS Server like Scaleway, NextDNS, etc.
I also recommend using Oblivious DNS over HTTPS for added security.
I am on a Freedesktop Linux system hence I refered to the Archlinux Wiki in setting the beforementioned configurations up.
Fun fact, 86% of the revenue for these big tech (Twitter/Meta/Google/YT) are from ads. 😀
Funner fact, social media apps collect more data than anybody else.
Uhhh.....
"Since your history shows frequent use of ~~pornhub~~, we highly recommend websites like ~~xvideos~~ and ~~redtube~~"
Because that's totally what every 15 year old fellow really needs hey Google?
I now understand late stage capitalism
Someone needs to make an extension that googles random stuff all the time and floods ones history with so much background noise that the history becomes useless.
(uses a different browser)
Have fun with that
I thought they did already.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
