  • I swapped to Chrome a long time ago, probably around Firefox 7 or so, and never really looked back. I didn’t really have an issue with being part of the Google ecosystem, and they were still in their embrace phase. It’s been a while.

    I have both browsers installed at the moment and under Linux/Wayland/Nvidia, Firefox definitely performs miles better (actual HW acceleration!) but Chrome still feels more practical to use, in my opinion. I think my main hang-up is that Chrome’s “Tab Groups” suit my approach to web browsing better than Firefox “Tab Containers”, even factoring in how Multi-Account Containers can make them more useful.


  • Meta can do whatever they want with Threads, in the exact same way that mastodon.social is it’s own independent instance and can do as it pleases.

    If Mastodon users want to follow or even see content on Threads, it’s entirely optional, depending on your current instance’s stance. You can always move to another instance that shares your views (and there will be plenty that do) and has defederated from Threads, or you could roll your own instance and be in control of what instances you interact/federate with for yourself.
