Since it looks like Firefox might not be a good option for the long haul due to some disappointing decisions from its management, I’m on the lookout for privacy-friendly alternatives. I came across Cromite, which is based on Chromium and has an ad blocker. Has anyone tried it? From what I’ve seen, the built-in ad blocker seems pretty basic and not very customizable. Still, I think any alternative we choose should be based on Chromium, especially if we don’t want to wait ages for Ladybird.

    Well, let’s see what happens first. If we’ll be able to disable all the junk, it’ll be okay.

    I still wanna support diversity among browser engines.

      i think it’s better to jump ship now so that they get scared and stop the enshitification early before it s too late

        Yeah, I don’t think that’s possible. 😅

        People have been jumping ship for a decade, and it hasn’t helped. They’ll probably have to sink first, and by then it might be too late if someone else has filled the void.

        I, for one, won’t be coming back if it comes to that.
