Firefox users who never left: feeling of smugness intensifies

[–] [email protected] 59 points 11 months ago

I try not to express or show it though. Only good vibes to bring everyone over to Firefox.

signature look of superiority

I must admit I ditched Firefox for a while when it was considerably slower than Chrome.

The last time I used Chrome was a fork called Rockmelt 🥴 then moved to Maxthon, then K-Meleon, and settled on Firefox

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Rockmelt is a fork of Chromium, not a fork of Chrome. Same with Maxthon. Both Chromium and Chrome are maintained by Google, but Chromium is open-sourced while Chrome is not.

I think I dropped it for a few years starting somewhere around v3.6. Also feelsbad

I'm ashamed to say I did the same and even converted quite a few non-tech savvy people as well. :(

You're so smug that you love to smell your own farts!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

The trick is to never let your smugness show, then you can be smug about your humility as well. *sniff* Ahhhh...

Same as reddit to lemmy story for me. Moving mobile browser from kiwi(chrome fork) to Firefox nightly. Already a Firefox user in pc.
