To be fair to the video, it presented alternative browsers for those who either aren’t happy about recent Firefox changes, or users who want a secondary browser. I’m not a fan of Brave personally, but the video never really makes the claim that Brave is objectively better than Firefox

Did you hear that? I feel like the toilet flushed funny
Sorry, I left this ambiguous. My intended context was that the person you were replying to didn’t mention Ecosia’s privacy.
I don’t see them claiming it is

This has absolutely never been my experience. Many people actually say Wine is a better choice for running legacy windows games and applications.
I dislike Windows as much as the next guy, and recognize this is just a rant. However:
Installing is just following directions. It’s maintaining it after you Frankenstein the hell out of it that most new users struggle with
there is no proprietary AMD Linux driver
I mean, there is. It just isn’t recommended for most users.
FYI: If you aren’t aware, Arch has a CLI installer now that is very easy to use, should you ever want to give it a try (archinstall)
Endeavour is basically Arch with a more user friendly installer, a very small number of their own packages, and a coat of paint.
Manjaro is similar, except Manjaro runs their own repositories and delays packages for testing. This can lead to a whole bunch of issues when combined with the AUR. The team leading it has also been shown to be a little inept at times. I wouldn’t personally recommend it.
The modlog is public on lemmy
The only downside is it can make web browsing and shopping a bit of a pain. But that’s my own fault for not taking 10 minutes to figure out how to set up split tunneling or just hosting qBittorrent on my media server…
Advice: Look up Gluetun and dockerize your torrent/vpn setup. Makes things real simple (including moving where it is hosted, should you choose to)
…What are you talking about?
That makes the stat worse, not better, no?
Uncounted users means fewer posts per user.
Oh, 100%. In terms of posts per active user, they look to be killing it.
Only with context, which is kind of what I was trying to say. The context was Firefox users who are not happy with its current direction, or people looking for a secondary browser. That kind of makes the only necessary criteria “Not Firefox”. Everything else is the creator’s opinions of which ones you “must try”.
