The lack of Google/Microsoft enshittification is a huge draw.

Amen, fellow Lemming. It feels good to pull away from an enshittified corporate staple and adopt something that isn’t trying to consume your soul.

Not chromium based. I think it’s important to have alternatives to chromium-based browsers and Google’s monopoly.

If Firefox vanishes, I’ll use Epiphany instead.

I use Firefox because I can use the full version of UBlock Origin, and UBlock Origin also works on the mobile browser.

I also make heavy use of the extension Multi-Account Containers for signing in with different accounts for the same service at once.

Lastly, I prefer the UI for Firefox over anything else.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
