With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

The best time to switch to Firefox was 5 years ago. The second best is today.

I use Firefox since it's release. It was never bad. I don't get all the Chrome users.

I had the crappiest of PCs in 2006 or 2007 with 768MBs of RAM running Windows XP. Funnily enough the reason I switched to Chrome back then was the immense RAM usage of Firefox compared to Chrome back then. With the big rebranding an rerelease of Firefox in 2017? 2018? I came back and haven’t looked back since.
