I donate to the Mozilla foundation, and I love Firefox a ton. But I can't seem to like the UI by installing a theme, and when I change it to look better the browser slows to a crawl. Does it really matter all that much if I use Chromium?

P.S. To the people from my last post regarding something similar, Firefox was too slow, I'm sorry, but I use Vivaldi instead of Brave because Brendon Eich can suck my dick.

Hmmm. Hard to get over that dislike of an interface. I have found one plugin killed Firefox performance for me but I'm generally happy with the layout so haven't messed with it.

On how important it is: I used Chromium for a while but went back to Firefox because I read someone somewhere say "If you don't use Firefox, there eventually wont be a Firefox to use" and that was enough for me to switch back.

If you're donating to Mozilla though, I guess they're more than happy with that even if you're not using the product.

That's the same reason I don't complain about having to pay taxes for schools, even if I don't have a child in school right now.
