Eh, so what's the point of the comment?
To stress that an open browser is more important than extensions on a closed browser.

~75% of Mozilla revenue comes from Google. Edge would be a much safer bet if you don't want a browser funded primarily with ad dollars.
Have you used Edge? It had clippable discount coupons built-in the last time I did. No thanks.
You can disable that with a single button press.

#44how the hell does anyone use a browser on their phone without a bottom address bar (a la firefox)? do i just have tiny hands??
Yeah that part is maddenning. I've been using a side-swippable cursor thing to reach the bar at the top.

It takes more than one click just to get to the right settings page, and there are numerous anti-features scattered across several settings pages. Cleaning up Edge is way more than one click.

...and to most everybody else.
When Firefox misbehaves and claims it owns data from users, Firefox can be forked.
Unless Microsoft intends to similarly abuse its users, Edge could be completely opened.
I would only ride a fork of Edge should this not prove true.

You're not alone. Boggles my mind. I'm on GrapheneOS and they still won't bring it to Vanadium so petty me sticks with Firefox.

#48Firefox for Android also supports extensions, including uBlock Origin: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin...
Additionally, Firefox has the recommended extensions program where they take the most popular/functional subset of extensios in a given category and manually vet the code for security and privacy issues.

#49I'll be sticking with Firefox, it has extensions and is not owned by an advertising company.
LMAO!!!
Thought it would be good to reply to all the subs-comments from the least useful comment.
I find it ironic that most of those defending edge's default ad infested config as ok because you can turn it off are likely the same people who'd lambast Firefox for having a lot less stuff turned on my default. I control everything in Firefox, no way anyone can say the say for edge, chrome or even safari.
