But if we are being honest, if you don't care about privacy, it is a good browser. Its better than chrome. You can check the performance of of both on the same machine. It also has better pdf rendering.

    It’s trash. It front pages clickbait and bullshit, has no privacy, and with so many other options why bother?

    I am not saying you should use it, i was addressing app quality. The original commenter wasn't talking about business practices but app quality. Which is why isaid "privacy aside". Privavcy is very important and i would never have someone use chrome or edge but that wasnt the topic.

    You could paint it gold with premium genuine alpaca leather interiors, and I would still not use it.

    It's only function is to download a better browser.
