Firefox has become practically useless for what I like to do on the net.


I'm not using chrome because frick the G.

I don't like Edge because microsoft is still stuck in 2005.

I recently switched to Opera for about the 14th time in my life, and I'm liking it.

I have been using Opera for almost 2 years now and I feel like its the best browser out there. People love Chrome, but I just didnt.

Give it a try. Opera Download link

It has a built in VPN and another feature that is very common and needed these days, but this site does not like to be discussed. If you use this feature, TD asks you whitelist them.

Try Chromium. Although it's supported by Google it's open source. Opera and others are based on Chromium.

I highly reccomend Brave, and it sounds like it's what your looking for:

I'm sure I'll like other browsers but I can't get pass the password saves and fill in across all my devices.

How is Firefox useless? Every other browser is some part of the Google system or has their own proprietary shite.

I used Opera for damn near 15 years, but about a year ago I switched to Firefox and don't see myself going back to Opera any time soon. The whole Chinese ownership of Opera made me a little uneasy. I'm not sure if that's warranted or not, but it's how I feel.

Out of curiosity, I just installed it (Opera). First impression is that it's way faster than Chrome - especially on the TD website - and it automatically imported my bookmarks.

For instance with the latest FF update, they took away the ability to copy/paste images directly to TD. They screwed the screenshot feature all up.

I tried Opera too. Although it seems very fast it won't allow the screen shot thing either.

After reading this thread, I just switched my computer over to Firefox from chrome.m and iPhone to safari from chrome.

I’ve read that any browser on iPhone is basically Safari though. What are y’all using on iPhones?

Ah. I rarely post on TD on my computer so I never noticed.

SeaMonkey is a very light browser.

deleted ... because just received a ransomware attack

and giving out to much information is never a good idea - (yep, probably just a coincident)
