    You can go back to Firefox. You would get used to it after like three days. You also won’t be adding to the Chromium monopoly and would keep the open web alive.

    Edit: if you really despise Firefox for some odd reason I don’t want to hear “it’s slow” because it simply is not then at least use Ungoogled Chromium instead of Brave

      I really despise Firefox because (checks notes) I, uhh… love giving Google hegemony over web standards?

      Sure, I can, but it would be a hassle and I’m kind of comfortable with what I have now. The first thing that hit me when I tried to get back to firefox (a couple weeks ago) was actually the time to load a page. It felt long compared to what I am use to. Sure it’s anecdotic, but I opened a game called factoryidle that ran capped at 200 fps on Brave, it was only at 70-80 fps on Firefox. The adblocker I had installed was also inferior to Brave’s. I guess it may be due to some extensions or I don’t know, but something was wrong and I didn’t want to do the effort to fix it.

      It’s like I want to believe, but as you say, I’m too lazy. I will try Ungoogled Chromium since you recommand it.
