you realize modern browsers have millions of lines and over a decade (or two!) of legacy code running that are under constant scrutiny by actors who spend all their time finding exploits in binary executables, right?
you realize your operating system also ships system updates on a regular, often daily basis, right?
Why don’t you run the update service? Or if you do, how does the few seconds it takes to apply the update really impact you? I never even realize it apparently updates so much as it doesn’t nag or anything.
I have stopped using Brave. Fuck those guys.
I just wish Firefox would update less frequently. It’s way too often.
would you rather they leave security holes open exposing your computer to bad things?
You know there’s another option besides not passing security holes to the users and then patching them later right?

I use more than one computer, it’s more like 8 times a month for me.

You could switch to the ESR branch, which gets feature updates much less frequently.
Thanks. A helpful response instead of a smarmy one. Refreshing.
Try Waterfox. It is pretty good.
Thanks.
