Here is /r/firefox sneeding about it https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1czpzs3/a_bad_infographic_comparing_various_browsers_from/
Edit: forgot to add the source:
There are many things one could note, but just for starters:
- Firefox does include anti-fingerprinting. We could say much about this, but at the very least it's there.
- Telemetry is not inherently bad, especially when you can turn it off(as is the case with Firefox). Moreover, Firefox is open source, so you can verify that what telemetry gets collected. "Type + num. of connections" is just a ridiculous metric.
- Firefox is certainly the most tweakable with perhaps Vivaldi having an edge if we exclude userCSS, but that's debatable.
- Ease of use is another ridiculous metric, that you'd expect Firefox to win. People of all ages use it.
People seem to just read the marketing on each browser's website and take them at face value.

Everyone shilling for brave should be shot! !commenters use EDGE OR FIREFOX
Way back in 2016, Brave promised to remove banner ads from websites and replace them with their own, basically trying to extract money directly from websites without the consent of their owners
In the same year, CEO Brendan Eich unilaterally added a fringe, pay-to-win Wikipedia clone into the default search engine list.
In 2018, Tom Scott and other creators noticed Brave was soliciting donations in their names without their knowledge or consent.
In 2020, Brave got caught injecting URLs with affiliate codes when users tried browsing to various websites.
Also in 2020, they silently started injecting ads into their home page backgrounds, pocketing the revenue. There was a lot of pushback: "the sponsored backgrounds give a bad first impression." Further requests were ignored (immediately closed)
In 2021, Brave's TOR window was found leaking DNS queries, and a patch was only widely deployed after articles called them out. (h/t schklom for pointing this out!)
In 2022, Brave floated the idea of further discouraging users from disabling sponsored messages.
In 2023, Brave got caught installing a paid VPN service on users' computers without their consent.
In 2024, Brave gave up on providing advanced fingerprint protection, citing flawed statistics (people who would enable the protection would likely disable Brave telemetry).
Other notes
They partnered with NewEgg to ship ads in boxes.

What a stupid BIPOC. If you're gonna call Brave out, offer something actually better like Pale Moon or Librewolf. Your mom must have fricked a donkey to produce such an r-slured son. Your donkey dad must have been molested by his owner and your mother must be a hardcore coal burner and dog fricker otherwise.
Literally a spammer...
Of course if you want BIPOCy browsers controlled by the government and leftoid masses, go for Edge or Fireflop. Otherwise, go Chad and get something better.
Btw, I build my own brave from source neighbor.

What I'm saying is that there's no legitimate web browser engine that is superior to Blink. So why not use Blink, just in a form that isn't Google trash? Brave is also an ex-Mozilla browser company (founded by a guy who disliked the homos and was forced out because of it)
Firefox when I was a teen (i.e. 8+ years ago) was cool, fast, portable and competitive. Now it's a giant resource hog running on a meme codebase (Rust) and even more cucked than Google. Only reason to use it is if you buy into Rust being good. Librewolf at least isn't BIPOCed by Mozilla but it's still a Mozilla core.

Been using it since 2019 or so but Its running like shit lately, crashes a lot, there's this bug with hardware video acceleration thats been there for years and they never fix it just tell you to turn acceleration off. They focus way more on fads like crypto and now AI which is freemium
Frankly I don't know what to move to, arc requires you to cuck to win11 or strag to apple, opera is chinkware, vivaldi was always shit, and firefox runs like crap because mozilla fired most of the devs after burning tons of money on literal wokeshit which is why firefox's marketshare is in the potty

Browser (or anything) offshoots always seem to end up that way. They never have the funding or manhours to fix anything significant so you just end up with buggy software with some gimmick bolted on. I also only use base Linux distributions for the same kind of reason.

How is this even a category, this is absolutely redundant because my 90 year old demented grandma who hasn't touched computers since 90s could install an adblocker. It's not a real category and shouldn't be taken into account.
What should be however is the source browser, which for a lot of these is chromium. This is the biggest of all red flags and nothing that is based off chromium should ever be used in a white man's house, ever.
Based on these more accurate metrics, firefox is absolutely viable

I wanted to like Vivaldi, but while they emphasise customisability the reality is that, like Chrome, you can only customise in very specific ways that the chrome devs considered. It's a nice UI, but I went back to Firefox.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
