The only two sources for this that I know of are that one article from 2022 and a brief mention on GrapheneOS FAQ which doesn’t go into detail. Is there a more detailed and recent source for this?

I am not interested in that performance though. I have two extensions: ublock and darkreader. I care which is faster with these enabled: hardened firefox or hardened ungoogled chromium.

Blink and V8 are demonstrably ages ahead of Gecko and SpiderMonkey. It’s not even close. I just didn’t think it would be this noticable during day-to-day use.

I have been daily driving firefox for a long time too. The other day at work a very heavy site that is a full blown application wouldn’t work properly so I had to use chrome for it. I ended up using it for a while during the day and I must admit everything was so much snappier than I was used to. I would never use Chrome but I’m now thinking about testing ungoogled chromium. I just find it hard to let go of my user styles.

Yeah my question is does this person and 40+ upvoters think using Hyprland is a sign someone is a competent software engineer?

hyprland

what?

Fuck yaml. I’m not parsing data structured with spaces and newlines with my eyes. Use visible characters.

If you don’t trust an extension then you shouldn’t install it in the first place. If you think an extension might be nefarious, trying to work around that by limiting its internet connection is risky.

The Netflix analogy does not make any sense in this context.

they could always ask. Ask and then listen.

Not nearly enough people turn on optional telemetry. I’ll bet you don’t always either.

I am happy they’re giving people a choice. On the other hand, the fact is, (privacy respecting) telemetry is the only way to make a program as complicated as a web browser better. Especially important when your competition is a giant data hoarder with orders of magnitude more users. And people will just not turn on opt-in telemetry.
