I initially only installed "Comodo Firewall" but for some reason they also installed a "Comodo Dragon Browser", which I did not consent to. I always choose the "advanced" installation to uncheck bloatware, but in this case there was none and when you try to uninstall the browser, they force you to participate in their survey otherwise you won't be able to uninstall the software..

“This software installer is almost as good as the one I used back in 1998 when The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table.”

Send them this: Comodo Dragon browser, where do I even begin? Strap in, because this is going to be a wild ride through the depths of disappointment and frustration.

Let's start with the interface. Oh boy, where to even start? It's like they took all the worst design elements from every other browser and threw them together in a blender without bothering to hit the "blend" button. Tabs are scattered haphazardly across the top of the window, buttons are strewn about like confetti at a clown convention, and don't even get me started on the menu layout. It's a maze of confusion that would make even the most seasoned navigators feel like they're lost in the Bermuda Triangle.

But hey, maybe you can overlook the interface if the performance is decent, right? Wrong. Comodo Dragon moves at the speed of a snail stuck in molasses. Pages take ages to load, even on a high-speed connection, and once they finally do, good luck trying to scroll through them without feeling like you're trying to push a boulder up a mountain. It's enough to make you want to throw your computer out the window and go back to using carrier pigeons to communicate.

And then there's the security features. Oh boy, don't even get me started. Supposedly, Comodo Dragon offers top-of-the-line security measures to keep your data safe from prying eyes. But in reality, it's about as effective as putting a "Beware of Dog" sign on a house with a pet goldfish. Malware scanning? Phishing protection? More like wishful thinking and crossed fingers. You'd have better luck protecting your data by writing it on a piece of paper and burying it in your backyard.

But wait, there's more! Let's talk about customization options. Or should I say, lack thereof. Sure, you can change the color scheme or add some fancy themes, but good luck finding anything that actually improves your browsing experience. It's like trying to decorate a dumpster fire with sparklers - no matter how much you try to pretty it up, it's still a dumpster fire.

In conclusion, Comodo Dragon is a dumpster fire of a browser that should be avoided at all costs. Save yourself the headache and stick with something more reliable, like banging two rocks together to communicate. At least then you won't have to deal with the soul-crushing disappointment of trying to use this monstrosity of a browser.

"I was just trying to install this bloatware but now that I'm forced to provide feedback about software I didn't want in the first place, I'm now going to uninstall all of your software and no longer be your customer."

That's what I would say

I'd type something like "Eat my nuts nuts nuts nuts nuts nuts nuts". Is that 30 characters?

[-] Gestrid@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Just hold down the "." button.

If you insist on using an inferior operating system that lets third-party software manage its own uninstallation instead of having the system-provided package manager control it, you're gonna have a bad time.
