Firefox is a privacy-friendly alternative to Chrome, using its own browser engine (Gecko) and offering strong privacy protections compared to Chromium-based browsers.
Despite its benefits, Firefox relies on Google for funding, raising concerns about its future, and some recent privacy decisions have drawn criticism.
Switching from Chrome to Firefox is simple, and alternatives like Mullvad Browser offer even stronger privacy for those seeking more protection.

Not subscribed and saw the post. Still a Chrome user but probably need to bite the bullet and move over.

I'm waiting for adblockers to stop working, or maybe when I have the time, but I have way too much shit going on to switch just now.
