i don't know, waterfox has been working fine for me the last couple of years. i used to be a chrome guy before that though.

i tried canary last year for about 6 months, i could never fully get into it. i think just based on the specs of my laptop, waterfox ran better but i figure if i had a better spec'ed laptop maybe canary would be better.

>>60082531
But palememe is shit too. Chrome/Chromium just don't have competition. I agree with Chromium most likely being botnet, but other browsers are too shit, and I value my time, sanity and experience enough not to use shit.
Actually there are alternatives, but all of them are chromium based, some with bonus botnet added on top.

My point stands, there is no way to block the sending of deviceId in Chromium on default build. No extension, no switch.

I just dumped Firefox last night to switch to Edge.

I visit fewer than a dozen sites in total. The only special property of Firefox that I was using was userChrome. I don't even block ads for fuck's sake.

What bugs me is that even Edge eats tons of RAM. I use shitty computers. I don't need six different processes sucking hundreds of MB just to render 4chan.

I tried chromium the last few days and it constantly crashed /gif/, /wsg/ and some other script heavy tabs for me. It feels faster than firefox but I have gone back to it and applied https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Firefox/Tweaks

I'd have no quarrels with people who state they're not trusting Chromium as they can't be bothered with checking the code out of laziness. Whatever, that's fine. This is NOT what the scum is bubbling ITT. They are pretending to know better, but, I guarantee you, wouldn't even know how to access the repository.

implying anyone has to figure out their mess of a code and it is not up to the bootnt to scam people into trusting their services

implying anyone will cherrypick their shit just to be able to compile a browser

implying 16GB ram and 100GB disk is normal to compile a piece of software (why Botnet software consume endless ram is beyond me)

implying junior devs would be not fired after writing useless commit messages

implying you know any better

What is your point? It has been dealt with. This is exactly how it's supposed to be done. Shit that doesn't belong in the browser got in, has been detected and removed.

>anything by google MIGHT BE dirty
ftfy. That's why people are supposed to check the source code. Why do I have to tell you this?

The incomprehensible mess of a post tells me that I hit a nerve. If you want to hit back, do it in a way a normal person can read it. I have no idea what kind of argument you were trying to throw at me.
