    And if you don’t like Firefox, use one of the Firefox forks. Some of them are very Chrome-like.

      They’re too strict, unless you have one that’s usable by default?

          Fingerprinting resistance is either too strict or none at all

          Cookies are removed when the browser is closed, and iirc history isn’t saved by default. It just makes it a pain for regular users

          It’s been a while since I used it, but Librewolf had a habit of showing the bitwarden extension’s window at the wrong size.

          I was able to fix this by disabling a “resist fingerprinting” setting, but it’s annoying to have to do stuff like this in the first place. I really wanted to have an exceptions list that included certain websites for fingerprinting resistance, but I never found a clear way to do it.

          There are a few other examples of settings that I had to tweak in order to make the experience as good as Firefox.

          Ah right. But none of them are true forks, really. They still rely on the Firefox project to port features in etc.
