Yes, I do, and I've done this myself.

lastpass.com works great across devices and stores passwords under a master password. It's great for password security. It can import your passwords upon installation and the content it stores is encrypted on their servers in a way where even when they've had hacks before they never lost any information.

...aaaaand the latest firefox bug seems to be blocking lastpass at this time. Splendid.

edit: I'm sure it will be fixed shortly, I just can't help but find it mildly ironic that firefox bugged itself to keep me on their browser app.

The Mozilla Foundation has lost all credibility at this point as if the last few versions of Firefox weren't already shockingly shitty on top of their SJW bullshit.

It should be removed from the list because its dog shit, its problems go back years.

I stuck with it until someone on the farms recommended Vivaldi which I ended up switching to because all the basic features I was getting via extensions in Firefox (including a more functional sidebar) were part of the basic package. The only issue with Vivaldi is download managers wont work on YouTube on account of the fact its a Chrome variant, but that can be solved by accessing the url via any good proxy site or just using desktop software.

I was ready to ditch Firefox at the time because of how often updates were breaking simple extensions. A couple months ago i was having problems with a certain video url not working through any proxy so I figured the simplest solution (hadn't found good desktop software at that time) would be to open Firefox for the first time in probably a year just to use my usual download managers on the problem url. I expected to have to update my download managers at least, but I was surprised to find that Firefox had somehow forgotten even the most basic settings including my chosen homepage, and that I was unable to download anything using any extension even if it was a new install with everything else removed, I eventually had to give up.

It needs constant oversight or it becomes unusable.

I use the old ESR release, blocked everything and it's been fine even though I'm now running the browser equivalent of grandpa's childhood snow-sleigh, just because I want that session manager extension for KiwiFarms and a couple of other things. I switched to Brave on mobile and sent null the crypto-rubels so now I feel like a big man. The best thing about Brave so far is that it doesn't suddenly load animated ads in the middle of an article, splitting the text like the red sea when I try to scroll and register it as a click and now I'm forwarded through a bunch of bullshit while mashing the back button, then gets added to a "this user seems to be interested in this product segment" and gets served more shit ads for juicers or other bullshit.

I miss when I only got things like Mitsubishi Heavy Industries ads. I'm not going to buy a cruise ship but I am a bit curious about what they have to offer.

I've more or less been a Firefox faggot since 2010 during the days of Firefox 3.5. I mean, I have used Chrome but I actually wound up abandoning it in 2013 because it kept conflicting with websites I used for actual schoolwork. I've exclusively used Firefox ever since though I have recently started using Brave over the last 2-3 days.

I certainly do /like/ the aesthetic but I can't really say it's the browser for me personally. If it was built atop Gecko and was compatible with my usual array of extensions that I've been using more or less exclusively for 8+ years, then I'd definitely make the switch permanent. I already have Ad Nauseum and Nanodefender on Firefox, so on a privacy standpoint, Brave is redundant. Also, despite how this browser is /NOT/ Chrome, it's still forked from Chromium which is still a project controlled by Google so you're not 100% free from Big G. With that said, I'll definitely be using it over a longer span of time to see if my thoughts will change. Still, I do wish that BAT was a browser-agnostic platform that I could load into Firefox via extension.
 
What do you, guys, think about Opera? I've been a user since version 6, back when they had their own engine. It's Chromium based nowadays. But it's faster than Chrome and doesn't have Goolag's spyware. Idk what surveillance they do have though.

Almost all of Opera's problems with website incompatibilities was solved with the migration from Presto to Blink but a lot of the customisation that came with Presto wound up going away when they migrated over. With that said, if you're /really/ going to be throwing your lot in with the Chromium-derivatives, you might as well go with Brave.

What is everyone's recommended extensions for Brave users? The Great Suspender works wonders. Credits to the guy who posted about that.

I've been using Ad Nauseum in conjunction with Nano Defender. I believe Tampermonkey is also compatible, but I haven't tested it yet because the scripts I use on Tampermonkey on Chrome proper are more or less obsolete on Brave (i.e. Anti-Adblock Killer).

Session Buddy is pretty good. I end up with windows full of tabs and it's nice to be able to save them and close that particular window or the entire session. That and the great suspender goes well together, hoard as many tabs as you want, hoard them forever!

"Google search link fix" fixes google search links - This is a personal pet-peeve, when googling something the url displays correctly until you click or right-click them, then it becomes a google specific click-through link. Very annoying if I just want to grab the url(right click, "copy link address") without clicking through and grabbing it from the address bar. E-mailing that url to someone will look like garbage and if the site looks sketchy and I want to open it in a virtual machine then it's annoying as well. Plus, fuck google, you have all my data already.
 
Hey, anyone got a VPN outside of the Fourteen Eyes that takes Monero? I don't particularly feel like converting my Monero to Bitcoin at the moment.

Is XMR.to not available in the US? That seems so weird.
