>> because what I have to do to it to keep it as usable

I find this confusing. Why is Firefox so much effort? Install it + badger + adnauseum. Done. Why so hard for you? I am not a power user, is that why I don't see the effort?

The new UI sucks (titlebar highjacking, tiny scrollbar), phones to Google by default (safe browsing), a lot of bad defaults.

So you need to install other stuff to make it usable. /s


Oh I see what you mean. I think of that as "one time setup" that any software needs, and not a bellyache.
