I've moved back to Firefox but damn it keeps mangling my streaming audio in some cases and there doesn't seem to be a fix despite spending most of last night going through the limited solutions. Seems like this is a common problem for many Firefox users so Chrome will stay in play for some of these uses.

Previously Chrome did it all...

Been using Firefox on desktop since it was called Firebird. I've jumped to different browsers on mobile, but Firefox on mobile has gotten a lot better since the last time I've tried it years ago, so I switched back to it recently.

Am I out of the loop on what the issue with chromium is? Currently I mainly use ungoogled chromium on my desktop.

It gives Google a huge amount of control over the internet, like recently when they thought about getting websites to add DRM so they could only be accessed from official Chrome browsers on authorized devices and such. They also added ad tracking directly into the browser, which might not be in ungoogled chromium but it'd be more work for them to remove it, and maybe later google makes it required to use chromium. And if they get their way with the website DRM they could try to force everyone to use specifically Google Chrome and then they can track everyone. It's important that we have other browsers such as Firefox so that Google can't just do whatever they want.

In my younger days I used Firefox as me default browser on Windows. It was fun to tinker with. The add-ons were especially interesting. Things like greasemonkey let you lay over a custom script over the websites you visited. But when I started to concern myself about the security of all this tinkering, I stopped with running script that a very sympathetic Russian kid had created. So at that time I switched to Google Chrome and now I'm using Edge Chromium.

For a reason I'm not yet sure about, the official website for provincial parks in my province refuse to establish a secure connection with Firefox. I've switched to FF a few months ago now and aside from that specific website not working correctly, the rest is fine to me.

have you tried spoofing your user agent with the useragent switcher extension?

I only keep edge around so I can Chromecast to my TV from my PC. Otherwise Firefox all the way.
