the lack of depth was what really made the game a disappointment
this right here. I didn’t experience any bugs at all on pc but the game is just bad, the world doesn’t feel lived in, and the gameplay is just meh (some guns were fun though)

Lemmy users try not to correct you challenge (impossible)
just so you know, Mozilla vpn is just a repackaged mullvad vpn, they’re partnered
for real though… as an American I would love if we were 11 years behind the EU in lots of other areas
Every single one of these Brave “scandals” are so irrelevant and meaningless. I was hoping the reddit hive mind wouldn’t be brought over to lemmy, but here we are.
This article, especially after the update from Brave, seems like a huge nothing-burger. Just another excuse for the Firefox Fanatics crowd to rag on Brave and circlejerk each other about how good Firefox is.
The article isn’t even about Brave Browser, and it has nothing to do with user data. The website owner is mad that Brave Search is crawling their site and using data in their “Summarizer” feature. I thought Firefox users were supposed to be against the Google internet monopoly, but apparently when it comes to one of the only companies with their own independent and actually decent search engine, they don’t seem to care anymore because of stupid “Firefox good brave bad” browser wars nonsense.
tech people get annoyed at the weirdest shit…
Well in my experience, Firefox is definitely slower, and it is immediately apparent that it is much jankier than Chrome. And as the many posts I linked above show, I am not the only one with this experience.
Also it’s hilarious how I give a source and now the goal posts are moved and the benchmarks are “synthetic”
CPU and GPU benchmarks are also “synthetic” but they still show actual differences between what is being tested.
Qualitatively and quantitatively, Firefox is slower.
These issues are posted about about all the time:

And everyone wonders why Firefox has less than a 3% market share

What’s wrong with Firefox?!
I will get downvotes for this, but you asked:
Firefox is slow and glitchy, and lots of websites break or just perform worse than chrome.
Firefox used to have ~30% market share around 13 years ago, when it was better than the competition. The reason it’s dropped so significantly is because better options came along (chrome)
I understand the arguments about Google controlling the internet through chromium. I would love for Firefox to actually be the best browser, but it’s not.
And since Firefox users ignore these citisisms and act like it’s the best browser ever, there is not enough pressure for Firefox to actually fix these issues, since their users act like it’s already the best thing available and perfect in every way. It’s very similar to why Linux doesn’t catch on.
I have tried just about every browser available. I will use the one that performs the best and has the best features. Currently that is Brave, which is a great browser, but I would absolutely jump to Firefox if things changed and it became the best performing option.
The death of the old internet continues…
I use brave and think it’s the best browser available, so I’m not arguing against it or anything, but technically it just supports use of the onion protocol, it does not provide the same full suite of protections that the tor browser does
As Brave says themselves:
