Asking after the privacy debacle and manifest. I'm not keeping up closely, but iirc Firefox is the browser recommended because of Ublock. After the privacy data issue I've noticed broken trust from Firefox users, recommendations in favor of switching browsers, and predictions saying Firefox is going downhill fast and that their forks won't be maintained for much longer.

So I'm here asking the seasoned sailors' thoughts, aye. Is this just a storm passing by or are you really considering jumping ship?

According to the devs vanadium is preferred for security, something about Firefox not having comparable sand boxing (?). Not sure, they wrote in length about the reasoning but at a certain point my eyes started glazing over.

I've been using Firefox for a long time on desktop and mobile, so when I switched to graphene I just kept with it.

I may try to switch over to vanadium though seeing as I'm already in "switching" mode.

I tried Vanadium when the install was fresh. The adblocking is just not that good... For example, on one of the sites it blocked the ads, but left out the giant HTML elements they used to be in.
