I have a bone to pick with the statement that Firefox doesn't have Chrome's vast add-on library. I admit that Chromium-based browsers have a huge selection of addons, especially since they're mostly compatible among them, but Firefox also boasts a huge selection of addons, some of which are either blocked on Chromium-based browsers or outright unavailable. Most of those are more technical in scope, but still... any developer worth his salt will have a Firefox version of the same add-on, unless it's very specific for Chromium engine.
I've used Chrome for a good 10 years, then I switched to Firefox (6+ years now), and they both have their pluses and minuses, I think Firefox is lagging loading Google services, particularly RU-vid, I wonder if that's just the browser.
@@ner0p No that's Google, but they won't change my mind to use Chrome. Only to test something or compare a website on Chrome to check if it has a problem I have on Firefox to see if it is the same on Chrome.
Good, clear, fair presentation. I'm a custom browser multi-tab freak and been using Firefox forever, use Edge Chrome only if I have to. It's hard to migrate from my Firefox extension/preference habits, regardless of its flaws. I just discovered Vivaldi. It's a like a breath of fresh air. Finally, a backup plan in case Firefox becomes corrupt. Going forward, I still worry about corporations buying the soul of such privacy respecting companies. Browsers/emails define our internet AND real life existence and safety. I'm willing to pay a small tiny fee to sustain such a community ($1/month). I'm thinking about like...free tier and optional proud (transparent) sponsor tier with Blender kind of open source style medals/badges. Just thinking aloud in my little corner...
Vivaldi has been on my radar for a long time, and became my default about a year or so ago, and I don't see myself switching any time soon. I do keep up with what the other browsers are dong, as well, but stick with Vivaldi for everything
Testing its speed myself of 3 browsers I noticed for fresh pages Opera > Chrome > Firefox. But for pages in cache Firefox > Opera > Chrome. Which is interesting.
I have nothing against Vivaldi, but it's not the most customizable browser after the Arc browser release, it's also a close-source, so you have to trust the company with your privacy! and probably Vivaldi is the sponsor of this video right!!
