Hi, new to lemmy in general so am just starting to explore and join the community so bare with me!
Here in the UK we just drink straight from the (cold water only by law due to differring regulations) tap without boiling and that’s been the case for decades at the least across the entire nation. There’s just no need to boil the water here unless you are cooking.
It’s also safe in Iceland, I went there and their water is crystal clear and pure since it’s sraight from the glaciers. You could drink out of a random stream there.
That’s just my werid phrasing, I mean the non-chromium branch that is Firefox and its backend.
I run a dark theme by default, first load of google.com in chrome is functionally indentical in performance as I said. Statistically there is a difference, probably only 0.1 - 0.25s max faster load in Chrome but it’s not reliable at all in the few tests I did quick (t’s 4am), so something that does not effect function itself, only form, makes me still correct in what I said originally.
Pixel 6a, it’s functional, effective, decent quality, budget, etc. That’s it really.
I run at 16GB of RAM and have 40+ tabs open 24/7. There are zero RAM issues, you need to plug your leaks.
Mostly having the centralized backbone of chromium makes people uncomfortable since it can do a lot from behind the scenes if it wanted to. But the raw base form is pretty much fine AFAIK, it’s just very rare among browsers to do so.
It is a common misconception, they perform functionally identical across multiple PC’s and updates. People are just slow to change their minds.
Firefox supremacy! Keep the non-chromiuim branch alive forevermore, no centralization please.
A VR (virtual reality) focused community would be nice, it has a very strong community across devices all things considered.
I’ll say it for everyone (and myself), NSFW communities. Reddit is still effectively king for that, at least for now.
