So, my special snowflake browser is no more? I know it's just a rebrand, but the very first thing that I was presented with was a prompt to create/log in with some Mozilla account shit. I don't like this.

Also, the first webm I opened in this new browser is fucked up. I don't call this an upgrade.

Firefox has been shit for awhile, just use chromium.

Chrom[e,ium] is even shittier. All of the botnet and none of the customization ability

customizations will be a goner for firefox also

firefox has gone full chrome lately. i jumped ship like a year ago, im currently using qutebrowser. i use vim like 10 hours a day so its bretty comphy. the hosts based adblocking is more than enough for me, and the keyboard shortcuts are all cool and easy to learn. theres not much space for customization, but i think its fine. the UI is minimal, and to be fair, all the customizing i did to firefox was making it more minimal.
if you know how to use vim and you like it, i quarantee that youll like qutebrowser. try it out.
