    You do know that firefox is essentially Netscape rebooted, right?

    Also I don’t really know what you are trying to say here. Netscape was definitely a better option than Internet Explorer.

  God damnit.

  Every browser I switched to since Firefox has been a good user experience, and then I find out some horrible bullshit.

  Is there any safe browser that isn’t run by hateful assholes?

  Probably also has some right wing bias as well. That’s probably one of the reasons they included goggles in Brave search for right wing content.
