God I wish chrome didn't remove manifest v2 
Here is the list of things that piss me off about firefox:
- It is dogshit slow
- It eats up a ludicrous amounts of RAM, which I wasn't expecting since it's one of the main things people make fun of chrome for
- It crashes constantly
- It tries to push it's "AI" bullshit on me despite me turning it off on multiple occasions
- It puts ads on my home page
- It needs to be relaunched regularly because at some point it becomes too laggy to use. It even stops loading pages altogether
- "Restore previous session" feature doesn't work half the time so restarting the browser is absolutely terrifying
- Profile management is a mess
Are there any alternatives? Is Brave any good?
Christ, I'm typing this on Firefox and it's only using 2.5gb of ram. And I have 16 tabs! An excessive amount of tabs! What do you have open???
With the number of tabs I have open 16 is effectively indistinguishable from 0
some of us like to use tabs like bookmarks and never close them ever
Same but I also never revisit them
40 hexbear tabs open because every time I want to go back to it I just open a new tab rather than go back to the one I was using before (that would take ~5 seconds more and I no longer have that kinda attention span!)
I have almost 100 tabs open. Most of them are just text - github pages, google search results, news articles, documentation pages. And a couple of youtube videos
Granted, it is a lot of tabs but I don't get why rendering some text to the screen should take so much memory
aren't really "just text" unless you've done something funky to google and are only browsing cool news sites
2.5 gigs is still a shitload, no?
I'm watching 3 different video essays on 3 tabs, and a 4th video on a Baldur's Gate 3 challenge run. Just watching like 10 mins of each and rotating. Idk why I do this.
Also a few Hexbear and wiki pages open, and for some reason tvtropes
