Reformatting body to be readable:

A list of recent hostile moves by #Google’s #Chrome team; handy for sharing with your entourage, to explain why they should stop using #Chromium / #GoogleChrome and use #Firefox or #Epiphany as their main #web #browser :

• The “Manifest v3” sabotage of content blocking extensions
• The attempted sabotage of #JPEGXL
• #WebEnvironmentIntegrity a.k.a. #DRM for whole websites would hurt the web, #opensource browsers and OSes

I switched when I got tired of not having ad blockers on mobile. Best decision ever. The Internet can be unusable without it.

I never used Chrome. happy user of Firefox since it's conception.

I do most browsing on Firefox, but there are some web developers who seem to totally ignore anything but Chrome. Like I sometimes think a site is broken until I try it in Chrome. Anyone else have this issue and have a solution other than using Chrome?
