I'm of the opinion that blaming Firefox for this is the same as blaming Linux for hardware manufacturers not writing drivers for Linux.
If Google wanted its services working in Firefox then they would.
- forego the web, embrace other protocols. From what I understand this seems to be the reasoning behind Gemini. - forego parts of the web, for example by using browsers whit limited functionalities (Dillo, Lynx, etc.)
I use Vivaldi, the performance issues are news to me and it seems pretty good. Though the latest update it keeps crashing when I open file selections, need to figure out what’s going on there. Before that it was very stable for me. I wouldn’t want to give up its tab management now though, especially its ability to do side by side/tiled groups.

Do you actually make anything of value? I ran Rewards for a long time and basically made almost zilch and wasn't sure if it was something on my end or? Is there some trick that makes it worthwhile?
The point of the Rewards system isn't to make users bank. It's to give users stuff they can give creators, so they don't get fucked as badly by the adblockalypse. Individual users aren't terribly valuable, ads make money due to sheer mass.
Microsoft Edge. Chromium based, has vertical tabs (window border can be switched off too) via flags. Works great. Vivaldi promised many things but its performance sucks indeed and I hate the fact that the browser has bullshit features like Phillips ligths controls or something.

The web browser ecosystem is frankly appalling, and it's so complicated it's impossible for new competitors to appear and improve the status quo. We just have to put up with it, and I am furious Mozilla, one of the shining beacons on t…

I usually fetch web pages from other sites by sending mail to a program (see https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/womb/hacks.git ) that fetches them, much like wget, and then mails them back to me. Then I look at them using a web browser, unless it is eas…

I use Brave, with the Rewards junk, and it has maintained its speed that every other browser I've used loses as it fills up with caches, history, extensions, etc.
