agreed. i try to explain to people that firefox is an open source program created by an organization that is trying to keep the web free, while chrome is created by one of the world's biggest advertising companies, but they don't seem to care enough to use firefox.

i feel like mozilla should give up on the soccer mom users and focus on being the power user browser. this is already the case to an extent, but they don't market firefox's advantages (like better extensions) well enough, and they don't quite focus on power-user-type features as much as i think they could.



I don't think most users need to care about it this much anyway.


It is amazing how little people care about freedom in general.


I don't know a single non-technical user who equates freedom with their choice of a web browser. The tech community is in such a big bubble when it comes to this.
