Evidently Firefox

Every once in a while, there’s a controversy about something Mozilla does. Integrating AI, or changing their terms of use, or creating Privacy Preserving Attribution, or installing a weird Mr. Robot themed extension.

I don’t usually agree with Mozilla’s decisions, but I understand where they’re coming from: they need to diversify their funding somehow. And their incentives are far less bad than the ones at Google or Apple.

Of course I use Firefox. It wouldn’t make sense to use anything else.

Any practical reasons? It has full ublock on mobile, it syncs across all my operating systems, it has a reader mode, it's packaged in all major distros. It doesn't have the distractions Chrome on mobile has. Plus it's supposed to be good for privacy or smth.
Any downsides? It's noticeably slower than Chrome on mobile, especially on very heavy websites. And Progressive Web Apps require an extension on desktop.
