I'm still angry that an (optionally) AI browser isn't the worst idea as a headline/dev direction ... if you don't read any further than the headline that is.

I do want or eventually will need some local, foss AI to deal with all the megacorp bs AI that will be just everywhere on the internets (I can't humanly fight the increasing megacorp slop, I need/will need my own AI to help me fight and navigate it, as a freedom necessity).
Someone pls work on that, I don't want to live in an internetless cave/woods for the rest of my life (the cave/woods is what I wish for regardless, it's just a question of my need for internet access).

But no, they decided to hammer their dicks with all the megamatacorp AIs. I mean, it's prob marginally better than to forward ppl to sites or Chrome, but it's not a thing that you would want publicized as a major step/direction, it's at the very least distasteful.

Pretty sure the translate feature is using local ai, which I think is great! Its not as accurate as others, but a lot more trustworthy at least

Yeah I'm switch off Firefox finally. I tried Floorp it does have some the same AI stuff you have to turn off. Waterfox doesn't have it in at all. So Waterfox it is.

Floorp

I don't think I will ever be able to pass past this name. It's a name of something that sci-fi comedic cartoon will create for a passing joke.

Feels like 'plumbus'

Waterfox is my favorite for sure, very lightweight too.

They just can't help themselves, eh?

I know I'm gonna get a lot of flack for suggesting this, but Vivaldi feels like what Firefox should have been. More customizability, less AI and sponsored crap. They are the only major browser offering an option for a small, reasonably sized tab bar rather than the tab bars with 3 layers of padding and more whitespace than text.

Additionally, Vivaldi doesn't pester you with twice-a-day update pop-ups or worse, the dreaded "Restart to keep using Firefox," it just gets out of your way like a good browser should.

I tried it before, it was buggy and my tabs locked up. Also since its based on chrome, its very nerfed when it comes to powerful plugins. I didnt like it. My first impression was positive but no, it feels very bloated.

But if you like it and you feel its better than Firefox for you, thats a good thing.

The image is nearly 10 months old!

Anyone that is not using Libre Wolf or equivalent should be to take advantage of the wonderful privacy suite.
