    The transition was a little weird for the first week, now I just use Chrome when I have to login with Google for some stupid shit. Otherwise it sits in my app drawer, because I’m definitely never logging in to a Google service while using Firefox.

    YouTube is better, browsing is better, ad block works, it’s just overall a superior browser.

      Use the multi container extension for Firefox and have all your Google stuff in one container, banks in another, social media in another etc.

      Why not log into a Google service while using Firefox?

        Basically just don’t want to give them the ability to track my every click.
