It is essential to stop using Chrome. Under the pretense of saving users from third-party spyware, Google is creating an ecosystem in which Chrome itself is the spyware. (mastodon.world)

I've been using Firefox since somewhere around 2008, it's been a dream the whole time.

Highly recommended

Tiny devils advocate, IF we can make it so ONLY Google can spy on us and ~~malware~~ adware can NOT spy on us would be an “improvement”. Google is a lot easier to target with regulation and stuff.

That said, I wouldn’t touch Google with a 10 foot pole.

Thanks for the reminder. I've switched to Firefox on my mac and iphone for personal use. I just need to move some web development stuff around so I can switch to Firefox on that too. I may even uninstall google chrome, but for now I've just taken it off the task bar.
