• Firefox offers better privacy and security than Chrome, with upcoming support for 200 new add-ons.

• While Chrome dominates, Firefox gains ground with user-friendly browsing experience and open-source model.

• Mozilla's focus on user privacy and transparency challenges Google's ad-centric approach, making Firefox a viable alternative.

Their website is in Japanese but everything in the browser itself was English by default when I started using it!

Kind of stunned anyone would want to use regular firefox. The default settings are so... adfulll and googly....

Librewolf, waterfox, floorp, zen, falkon, mullvad browser, pale moon.... A couple lf these aren't fox based but like....

Firefox became chrome lite several years ago. But maybe it looks nice compared to actual chrome?
