Next time you don't want to update your operating system to do the same things on the Internet you did 5 years ago, #Firefox is your friend.

Agree to disagree. I use Firefox and I don't like it. I'm a taboholic and the tabs don't layer. Leaving YouTube up makes it run real slow and I have to close it and open it again. Firefox always seems to be one of the browsers that's not compatible with some websites. Every now and then I get a tab that opens, especially when I restart, telling me about some feature. And that's just the stuff I can think of off the top of my head. Brave gets a lot of crap on this platform, but I never had any of these problems. Why do I use it? Because they all seem to suck. Chrome is just Google. It's very secure except from the worst offender. Brave is a scam. Edge is...well Edge. Mulvad didn't work for me because I like to come back to where I left off when I shut down and I guess that doesn't go with it's secure nature. It's frustrating.

Got any other suggestions?

My suggestion is every browser is a compromise, so for all but the lightest users, we need more than one. #Firefox is unique not being Chromium.

Because Firefox is not Chromium, I can use it on old computers made obsolete. Eg:

Win 7 ends at Chrome 109.
Ubuntu 16 ends at Chrome 106.

(Chromium version = Chrome version)

My Firefox is new if not the latest in those OS.
