    Firefox isn’t an “alternative browser.”

    I didn’t think Google would play the evil card, but don’t trust the ad blocking abilities of software made by an advertising company, I guess.

      What do you mean by not an alternative browser?
      Are you trying to say something about the word choice or…?
      Chrome is an alternative browser to Firefox too.

        yes, i think he is speaking about the word itself. it is terrible that it is gaining negative connotation… like when people say bullshit like “alternative facts” or “alternative medicine” and the word itself slowly starts to look slightly suspicious just because it is used by morons.

        It’s not an alternative, it’s the browser you should use
