I donate to the Mozilla foundation, and I love Firefox a ton. But I can't seem to like the UI by installing a theme, and when I change it to look better the browser slows to a crawl. Does it really matter all that much if I use Chromium?

P.S. To the people from my last post regarding something similar, Firefox was too slow, I'm sorry, but I use Vivaldi instead of Brave because Brendon Eich can suck my dick.

You should, however, give a fuck about the implications of using said browsers, which "strangers on the internet" make you aware of, for good reason.

Nobody is just being bullied into choosing a specific browser. People are passionate about this because what browsers people use shapes the web and how we all use it. And since so many services aren't even available outside the web, that can have a huge impact on our collective lives as a whole.

The average person won’t give a fuck about the implications of using said browsers, which “strangers on the internet” make them aware of.

I never implied that people were being bullied into using a specific browser, just that people shouldn’t give a fuck if they post a picture of their desktop and someone bitches about them using Chrome and starts circlejerking Firefox/Brave/[Insert Browser Here].

Yes that's part of the problem
