I’m not worried about this at all. I don’t use Chrome anyways. I use Brave. It has a built-in ad blocker that works pretty well and I don’t see that going away.

Glad I have firefox as well but also looking forward to a cool new project called Ladybird. https://ladybird.org

Not sure if its the right one but glad there are more projects out there trying to jump into the game. (I know extensions are a long way off for it but i see it as hope.)

Also please consider running pihole or adguard home. Or any other full home DNS add blocker. It will help.

Now what would be impressive is if they ban uBlock origin from working on firefox mobile. That would be a whole new kind of sinister

I know everyone is doing the “use Firefox” thing, but please remember that Acer alone sold almost a million Chromebooks globally in 2023.

Sure, many of those people probably weren’t going to use it anyway, but plenty were. I installed it on my daughter’s Chromebook that she was forced to use for school.

I only use chrome for things that require my Google account.

Google Chrome is about to be disabled? Got it.

Firefox ftw.

I’ve actually been using Waterfox lately though because for some reason there’s a video codec issue on Firefox that makes YouTube videos not play correctly.

Safari is ok too…

Good thing I ditched Chrome the moment I heard about their plans.

Very firefox, very legal very cool.

I use chromium for one thing, and it’s casting live sports to my Chromecast. My plans to implement a HTPC have just been expedited.

The modern Internet is completely unusable without an ad blocker. Way to remake ie6, Google!

Lol like anyone smart still used Google.

I honestly can’t wait to see how this plays out. Only Chrome, chromium and edge in their pure forms have dedicated to doing this. Most of the Chrome forks have said they’re going to fork and keep it running. It’s certainly going to give Firefox a shot in the arm, but there’s no lack of other competition either.

Sounds like another reason not to use Chrome.
