Final straw for me and SJWfirefox. This browser is garbage anyway, it's sad to see it decline to what it is today. Should I really move to botnet chrome or stick with the previous versions of FF?

Use Opera. It's the positives of chome without google.

Curious why u need all 3?

>>55668814
It just got sold to the chinese, don't spread disinfo

>>55668792
Use Cyberfox, and Palemoon.
If you need more than two, use Chromium but compile it from source and remove the features that cause it to phone home.
It still contacts google, look it up

Honestly, use Brave. It's by Brendan Eich (who was made to resign from SJW-zilla).

It is practically Chromium being re-written from the bottom up focussing on privacy and speed. Soon, it'll be the browser of choice for /g/ Mark my words.

Use Palemoon and Waterfox as portables

>runs multiple copies of Firefox and its derivatives
>doesn't bother to learn how Firefox actually stores its data (profiles) and how to launch multiple copies of it while giving each a different profile

It's all documented out there and has been for 15 years now. If only you spent some time reading it, all your problems could be avoided.

As of why the three got "merged", I can only guess you didn't properly isolate them (ie. use multiple profiles correctly).

Start here:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Multiple_profiles

Your best bet is to nuke the current profiles because they're fucked up anyway, uninstall all three browsers and reinstall them one by one while setting up the profiles correctly along the way.

Funny thing, I've been doing just that. It still decides to not start up and complains another instance of FireFox is running and has to shut down.
>>
>>55669635
I hope you're right, Anon. Brave looks pretty promising in the face of all these Firefox issues everyone is having. I think the biggest obstacle is clearly add-ons/extensions. People are very attached to those.

>>55668792
What about Vivaldi?
>>
>>55670220

Brave, being based on Chrome/Chromium, already has the security side of things over Firefox (sandboxing etc.) Addons I am still not sure about, however, HTTPS Everywhere and Ad-Blocking/tracking is standard on it. I wouldn't be surprised if in the near future, Tor also switches to using Brave as its native browser.

>>55670280

Never used it but apparently it is based on Chrome also. I trust Eich more and especially now that it is only a matter of time before Brave kills Firefox - it's Eich's perfect revenge plan. It couldn't come sooner.

Braveis anopen source[1][2][3]web browserbased on theChromiumweb browser and itsBlinkengine, announced by the co-founder of theMozilla Project,Brendan Eich. It aims to blockwebsite trackersand remove intrusiveinternet advertisements, replacing them with ads sold by Eich's company. T


But?

Wut*

I use Firefox and Opera and K-meleon.

>replaces ads

Why do people get hung up on this point? If Brave is SET TO show ads (instead of block), it uses a local cache of browsing history to show ads.

You can still fucking leave ads disabled. Problem solved.

>>55668792
Use firefox and Seamonkey(better than whatever other childish FF deviation like "palemoon")
>>
firefox.exe -p and select your profile before opening. Probably just choosing the same profile for each version, if not create a new one.

Uninstall all of them and install Aurora you twat.

Interface is slow shit, otherwise it's pretty much chrome.

Am I getting shilled or is this legit? I've never heard of it before

I am unironically going to give this a try but what a stupid name for a browser.
