not like you can use acrobat reader in google chrome anyway
>>
>>56998002
>pdf.js no adobe pdf render
Chrom* can display pdfs too

>ability to tune caching settings in about:config
Don't think you can do it in Chrom*

>in browser ip address blacklisting
What's that for? Use hosts file or custom filter for uBlock Origin

>replace website css
Stylish or Tampermonkey

>grease monkey to re-draw sites
Tampermonkey

>no script
uMatrix is better and available for Chrom*

>ublock origin which actually blocks google ads
uBlock Origin is available for Chrom*

So again... Why are you using a slower and less secure browser?

Chrome tracks everything you do, it's what Google does as a company. They then sell your information etc if you use Google products like Gmail + Chrome (+ ???), Google has a profile on you more detailed than the NSA or FBI could ever manage unless you were selected for active investigation

Chromium is a piece of trash and is botnet. So, no thanks.

So how can I multitab on chrome without all tabs getting crammed in the tabbar? That's why I only use Chrome for Facebook and yt, which are fucking laggy on FF.

How to tell immediately if you're talking to a pathetic, semi-retarded wanker:

1. Says "cuck" or variant.
2. Says "kek" or variant.
3. Says "normies" or variant.

For a billion of reasons that are all wrong. Over raw Chrome/ium though, Firefox has a customizable/scriptable UI ("better extensions"), lower memory usage in a single process, a wider range of options by default (about:config or whatever it was), and a questionable commitment to privacy (to my knowledge not backed up by any major differences in capabilities or code, more of a philosophical thing). Otherwise it's absolute dogshit in most other categories, especially on mobile.
>>
>>56997763
A long term service branch.

>>56997763
FF seems more friendly
>>
>>56998309
