      Firefox a few years ago would kill my Mac battery in a couple hours, now it’s as good as safari for energy management. No reason not to use it as a daily driver now.

      I’ll stick to Safari. I don’t trust Mozilla any more than Google or Microsoft.

        Ah yes, an open source popular browser that is made by a nonprofit organization is less trustworthy than a close source browser made by a public company

          An open source organization with a track record of dubious user-hostile behavior.

          Example one

          Example two

          Apple does not add plugins to my browser without my consent, nor do they show ads in my browser.

          If you’re running Safari, you’re already running their OS. If Apple wants to spy on you, they’ve already got the means to do so, so you’ve already decided to trust them.

          Switching to Chrome or Firefox means trusting one more entity in addition to Apple. This expands your possible exposure.
