No it hasn't. Ungoogled chromium and chromium are different.

The most recommendations I have read from security researchers also recommend Firefox over Chromium based browsers. So I would also be interested where that comes from.

Firefox tends to be more secure, and chrome has had many zero-day exploits. Firefox even had a bug which never really came to light until a tracking related exploit was revealed, and said bug protected Firefox from the exploit.

Firefox memory management on Windows ( haven't tested but that's what people say ) seems to be better, but on GNU/Linux I have far better results with Chromium ( Brave ) than Firefox, weither with few or massive amount of opened tabs.

@@heroe1486 I actually had waaay better results with pretty much all Chromium based browsers than FF on Windows when i get close to my RAM limit, which happens very often.

@@UnworthyUnbeliever then it's worse with both, apparently the tendancy was : firefox better with massive amount of tabs and chromium with few tabs open. But I even experienced better performances i'on Chromium with many tabs. On GNU/Linux I can tell you I already have a 1.5gb Ram difference between both with like 20 youtube tabs open and few lightweight websites And I noticed when I let some Firefox windows opened for a long time ( like 5 days or more ) I get close to 15 gb RAM overall ( with maybe 10-12 from Firefox )

@@heroe1486 Really interesting. Now my story: i have 4GiB of ram, you could say i pretty much hit the ram limit third or forth tab i open. On Windows, Chromium based Browsers dont even bother, whats even Vram bro, lemme just remove from the ram the tabs you havn't visited the last 3 tabs switch, and just refresh it whenever you return. All i had to remember is the URL and tab's thumbnail lol. I could open 60 tabs on single Chrome window and 40 in another, i can open as much tab on Chrome that the tabs symbol become unclickable, and chrome is like, do you want open more tabs? That's ok, i just have to refresh old tabs once you return to them, cause you dont have much ram. Firefox? Oh bro, Firefox tries to keep tabs in ram, it can keep more tabs in ram than chrome, up to six MAX, but once i hit RAM limit. . . Dear god. My entire system hangs, slow downs to oblivion, OS unresponsive as hell, 100% disk I/O by Firefox, while doing nothing. Once i hit that condition, i disconnected from net, not Helped. Firefox Hogged my entire HDD I/O for HALF A HOUR, while doing... nothing. Windows couldn't even run task manager. Finally i got task manager running and ended Firefox's misery. Can you imagine THAT? Full disk read/write on a browser that is not even connected to net for the past thirty or so minutes and all Firefox have to do is to cache tabs into VRAM. On Linux OS? Same problem with Firefox, it just takes a bit longer to hit the RAM limit, like three or four tabs more compared to windows, but once it hit the RAM limit and starts to swap, same problem as windows. Chromium based browsers play nice with linux too, they try to swap files on linux, in opposition to just clearing the tab from RAM on windows, and they hit in performance once swapping begins, but in reasonable amount. You could say swap is slow, yeah, and loading tabs from swap is, but its not like the madness Firefox causes.

@@heroe1486 We could Agree that Firefox suffers from rather odd memory leaks. Anyway, we can use Chromium based browsers on any OS Anyway, so why bother.

Microsoft finally nailed it with Edge. I still use Vivaldi as main browser on desktop, but I'd recommend everyone who doesn't want Google Chrome to trust Microsoft again (in terms of having a good browser). Though I gotta say, previous Edge was solid too. Firefox caused significantly more trouble while developing than old Edge (and don't get me started with Safari, it's worse than IE ever was). It wasn't buggy at all and had frequent updates, it just would never have kept up with Google.

We are in a transition period off loading content creators and viewers onto other sites. With that said yes I do encourage people to get off as soon as possible. At this point the more we spread awareness about alternatives like Bitchute, Rumble, DLive, etc. the better.

@Marc Carran please look at the Constitution and tell me where it mentions hate speech. I don't like hateful speech any more than anyone else but when you start to define what is hate speech and what isn't it's a slippery slope indeed. I believe what is going on is an excuse to limit political speech. We as a society should not tolerate limits of free speech. Limits on speech lead to more fascism not less. This is a lesson from history.

@edward Google does not impose a direction on how Firefox is developed and how they do business. They pay them so that Google remains the default search engine, which is fine by me. I am not against Google, I am just against using them, and this applies to any other company, as the provider of all the services. Like, I do not mind searching with Google, it is a very good product, but Google offering a browser, storage, email, documents suite etc etc, that can become dangerous. Also, with search, they provide a very good product, like we all know how Bing never finds what we want, but Chrome to me offers nothing groundbreaking above Firefox so it is a no brainer to support Mozilla, not to mention their philosophy.

@@vali20vali20vali20 The fact that Google pays them means they're beholden to them and have leverage on them. Kind of like how MS got it's claws into Linux. Now if Mozilla don't implement their "suggestions" they threaten to ax their "donations".

@@JohnnyForehead I don’t think so. There are plenty of companies that want to be the default search engine in Firefox. Google has more to lose. It is not a yearly contest. Once they give up and another entity becomes the default search engine, they will have a chance to change their mind only when the new entity gives up this privilege. That’s how it works. And as for Linux, I don’t get all this Microsoft aversion, what have they done specific here to be perceived as a threat? To me, they are merely a contributor, if that, and that’s it, I don’t think Linus takes suggestions from them now for any other reason than proper technical explanations.

@@vali20vali20vali20 What MS did was threaten The Linux Foundation to withhold their "contributions" when they were reluctant to implement some closed source software which changes the whole dynamic of the original mission of open source. The Dissenter plugin was removed under pressure and Parlor was just nuked . Twitter was willing to risk alienating 75 million users in this current atmosphere of tech monopolistic power grab as the left pushes to control what you see, think, and who you associate with. I respectfully disagree. Firefox was more of an answer to Explorer's horrific security flaws of the day and was, I believe, the better choice of the day. Now, maybe not so much, but that's up to the individual to decide.

worries about data collection but connects to the internet?

@Hunters Only 2 problems there. All data is anonymous and they don't sell data. Even so, it's something you can prompt out of if you don't feel like giving any diagnostic information. Which is what I recommend you do too, even if that data is anonymous.

@Hunters I have limited my google usage to youtube only. Search engine, browser and operating system all are privacy oriented. Unfortunately, for the most part, youtube is still the monopoly in video-sharing. Brave is open source. That means you as a user can go and look at the source code and tinker and code as you please. You may also fork it as another browser like ungoogled cromium is for chromium. Open source also means everything is open to the user, all calls and data leaving and entering is visible and as such it is impossible for them to take data without the user knowing. But I get it, Brave being registered in California it is still not trustworthy. All I'm saying is they so far have acted good.

@Hunters That‘s right! The wrong services will invade your privacy. Looking before using is the way to go and piece by piece you can make your internet activity safe and private.

Brave isn’t fully open source, only the client is. The client also connects you to services that you can’t see the code for. It is very possible that they sell data

@@JessieProductions Yes, you don't know what happens on server side. But you know what goes to the server and, if you have all unchecked in the browser, there is nothing going to the server itself.
