Should I use chromium based browsers or firefox? (lemm.ee)

Chromium has better features, but with google announcing its plan to 'drm the internet' I 'm not sure if it'd be a good idea.

I generally install chrome to people who have no idea what they are doing.

Why? It's not like Firefox is more complicated for the end user than Chrome.

True. However, when something goes wrong with an ignorant person's machine, they are quick to blame it on the "unconventional" choice someone else made.

Fair. I might do the same now, because that is such a good point.

Good point. No one knows what a Mozilla is, but if you say it's Google’s problem everyone shuts up.

That's very true.
