Use Firefox.

Support Firefox.

Using alternative Chromium based browsers is not it.

Firefox is wonderful ๐Ÿ’ฏ

I absolutely would if I could get it to run decently on my Mac... it just slows to a crawl, especially page scrolling. I'm stuck on Edge for now, but having a look at Orion as an alternative

I've been using firefox almost exclusively on my macs for years. It never gives me any issues.

It works for me with zero issues on my MBP.

Aye so people keep telling me, I wish I knew what was causing my issues as would much rather be using it - prefer the UI, the customisation etc but the performance I just had to give up on the end.

I see the Reddit BS of downvoting stuff people disagree with has moved to Lemmy as well... Won't take long for the morons to ruin open conversations on here as well ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

you might try waterfox. It's a stripped down firefox. Might work for you better?
