I mean, come on: if you are using an app that’s not M$ Word, *of course* it doesn’t look exactly like or behave exactly like Word! You have to *learn* how to use it. Believe it or not, even Word has to be learned; often it feels “natural” only because you have learned to use it so long ago.

The same with “alternative #browser's” vs. #GoogleChrome, etc. 2/2

"As of December 2024, the Chrome version of #uBlockOrigin had over 40 million active users and the Firefox version had over 9 million active users."

Given the difference in user counts between #GoogleChrome and #Firefox, it's striking how much more (on average!) Firefox users know about privacy and safety than Chrome users do.

I do agree that #Linux-users are more likely than #Windows-users to be running Firefox and that this'll cause Linux to be under-counted.

With #GoogleChrome's "incognito" mode, *you* can't track what websites you've visited, but #Google (and therefore a lot of other websites, advertisers and whatnot) can and do :blobfoxdetective:

Using #LibreWolf with history turned on, I have it the other way round: I can track *my own* history, but other people can't! :librewolf:

Revolutionary, right?
