Since currently Lemmy is mostly made up of nerds, I’d like to know what browsers you use and why? You could just upvote the comment with your browser of choice if you don’t want to explain.

    He’s not lying. Mutiple tests around net agree that OUT OF THE BOX it’s the most secure browser.

      It may nominally have more secure defaults than Firefox (although I doubt it’s better in the areas that matter.)

      The problem is that the creators have demonstrated (by secretly injecting referral/affiliate links into URLs, and also by being crypto shills) that they are entirely untrustworthy. In a piece of software as security and privacy critical as a browser, such behavior is unacceptable.

        Wow your argument is if you enabled the optional ads there are privacy issues? Why would you do that anyway?
