Firefox users who never left: feeling of smugness intensifies

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 59 points 2 years ago

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

signature look of superiority

[–] krimson 47 points 2 years ago (5 children)

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

[–] ericisshort@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years 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'm ashamed to say I did the same and even converted quite a few non-tech savvy people as well. :(

[–] Evilcoleslaw@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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

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

[–] Enkers@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years 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.
