Question: what do people have against chromium? I understand not liking Chrome specifically, but what’s the issue with non-Google chromium? I use Brave on my PC and phone, and Edge for work.
As for Firefox, I love and appreciate what they are doing and what they stand for. I tried using it and had one bad experience, where I was doing some web dev and encountered a bug that drove me crazy trying to fix, only to find it was a bug with FF itself. So I switched to Brave for development, and then I liked it and haven’t switched back. So, not to say that one little bug “ruined” FF for me, I just haven’t had any reason to stop using Brave.

Dunno about others, but I run older hardware and Chrom* was a resource piglet for me.
Which is ironic, since when Chrome was released, it got traction for being slimmer and a lot faster than Firefox.
It probably doesn’t help, that browsers had to become (almost) full operating systems and runtime environment.
Unsing older hardware here too. Had to move to pale moon because even Firefox struggles with 2gb of ram.
