    Switched to edge after chrome notified that adblock and other manifest v2 extensions will be blocked. Edge did the same thing recently. Now switched to Firefox. Used to use Firefox way back in the day then left it due to Chrome but now Firefox feels like home. Surprisingly l, it’s faster in some cases compared to Chrome. Not a single regret after switching. Adblock stays which is extremely important esp after youtube increased ads

      Welcome back!

      Firefox evolves too, and there’s a lot of improvements both in the UI and under the hood. If you used Firefox before 2017, the difference should be especially prominent as they made a huge engine-level leap back then.

        Yeah! Firefox after a certain time (pre 2017 as mentioned by u) felt slow and sluggish compared to chrome but now in some cases it’s better than chrome
