POZ JEW, NOT EVEN ONCE
chromium wins again
really this now leaves no option but to roll your own browser with webkit in C or qtwebengine in C++.

I might just use Lynx after this. Brave for a GUI. Not sure yet.

The only cuck here is you. Provide an archive link gigantic faggot.

Didn't this already happen years ago?

Well, i'm happy the I abandoned Firefox months ago for Brave on mobile and Vivaldi on desktop

The article says that they are trying to make it their second revenue source, after Google and to show the world that advertisements can be shown without invading user privacy. In addition to this, most of the analytics are done in the client, so it claims.

I have mixed feelings about this to be honest. I would be really glad if Google had less political influence on Mozilla like they have been for the past few years. On the other hand, I always had a stance that opposed advertisements on the web, based on the idea that most ads are annoying, subversive, manipulative and contain malware. If the Mozilla keep their promise on respecting the user privacy (not likely but) I wouldn't really mind that move. Mozilla really needs to have another revenue resource to compete with the vast funding the Google is capable of providing Chromium, so it may be regarded as a necessary evil.

Not quite like this.

Good choices. Waiting for Brave to be more stable on desktop to make the switch. Using IceCat at the moment.
