Yeah those are 2 good points that I didn’t think about when writing my comment. I guess they aren’t bad in terms of the fact that they spy on you (browser like brave don’t and brave has a built in ad blocker so it is mostly unefected by manifest v3).
But chromium is bad in terms that it is so dominant in the browser space that google can just do things like manifest v3 and no one does anything about it because they won’t even consider for a moment that firefox is a viable alternative.
People almost stair at me in disgust when they see me using firefox because they think it’s a terrible browser even thought they don’t really know why. I think that goes to show how excellent of a job Google has done brainwashing everyone to think chrome is the only browser worth considering.
Overall I love competition and using the less popular competing product, since it’s the only way you can stop for proffit companies from screwing it’s users over.

Oh, don’t get me wrong. Chrome and derivates are also terrible for spying on your every click.
