In short: yes.

There isn’t to much to reduce. I don’t think Google is scared or afraid by Firefox, like at all.

“It’s always DNS”

Better yet, you can setup DoT or DoH, so no need for VPN. It’s relatively easy to do with Adguard Home (one needs a domain and a certificate).

Brave bad, CEO evil, Chromium, cryptoooo, etc… Bullshit browser.

You people are so dumb, predictable and obtuse… Welcome to my blocklist :-)

Pathetic.

Shields.

EDIT: Let’s both save our time: "Brave bad, CEO evil, Chromium, cryptoooo, etc… ". I don’t care. Mozilla isn’t less shitty at all and Firefox is mediocre (source: have been a FF user/advocate from 2002 to 2021).

I’m not interesting in debating.

Many chromium browser have built-in adblockers and some of them are on-par with uBO. These are not extensions, so Google can’t really do anything about them. Not worried in the slightest.

As I said, I mainly care about adblocking. Shields (Brave’s adblocker) does an amazing job and doesn’t depend on MV2 or MV3 (it’s not an extension).

That’s precisely one of the reasons I use it.

I only care about adblocking, so ControlD+Brave for me.

If you are from EU, I think it’s forbidden to disallow exporting your data. I may be wrong.

Left them 4 years ago (after 20ish years), so…

What a creepy title, jeez.

LOL, I’m boycotting Amazon since 2007, at least. Good luck!

If I remember correctly, Thunderbird isn’t a Mozilla product anymore but it’s maintained by the community. Mozilla just hosts it.

Add some better CEO/management to the mix, but yes.

Amazing.

Well, IIRC, TB isn’t developed by Mozilla. They just “host” it.
