I’ve been using it on my phone for a fair bit. I still run into issues from time to time where pages don’t render properly, but that could also have to do with the adblocking which is a major advantage of Firefox. I only use Chrome now if Firefox doesn’t work.

I used to use Brave for years, and tried Kiwi for a fair bit too, but both of them have their own issues. I’ve found that Firefox works well enough for me now and allows me to stick it to the man.

Why Safari? Apple is just another greedy corporation.

I reinstalled my pc and didn’t install chrome. Firefox is pretty decent.

I remember going from IE to Firefox when they came out with tabs way back. We probably shouldn’t have switched to chrome en masse in hindsight.

So they’re not getting back together?

What’s the point of this whole platform if we’re not exchanging experiences?

I know there there was a feeling by some back on Reddit that Europeans like pissing on the US without self-reflection. Maybe that is partly true, but you also don’t read any of the self-reflections because chances they are in our native languages.

But for me personally I have considered moving to the US as a skilled worker, which if possible is a privileged position to begin with. I’m in a field that pays much better in the US so I am still envious of colleagues in the US making 1.5 to 2 times what I do. But I just don’t love my job. I’m pretty good at parts of it, but I hate (read: am bad at) some other necessary parts of my job. So in the end my career options are somewhat limited. So yeah, there is probably a degree of cognitive dissonance involved.

Here is a list of things wrong with the Netherlands, just to balance shit

• Dutch childcare benefits scandal: Government falsely accused vulnerable citizens of fraud, leading to children being placed out of the house, bankruptcies, and even suicides
• Youth minimum wage (though being phased out)
• Labour exploitation through flexible contracts
• Terrible working and housing conditions for foreign slaughterhouse workers
• Nitrogen crisis
• Housing crisis, partly because of demographic developments (fewer people per house, slight growth through immigration) but now also because of the nitrogen crisis
• The government basically forced hundreds of asylum seekers to sleep outside last summer because of budget cuts which are probably popular with a certain constituency
• Earthquakes crisis in Groningen because of natural gas extraction, with a government turning a blind eye to people who saw the value of their houses tank because of structural damage

And that’s before you get to all the things you could say for any developed western capitalist nation.

A continuous 30 day vacation is only 20 working days or so. In my country that’s the government mandated minimum.

I think 25 or 30 workday paid vacation mandate is better for your mental health and productivity.

I actually get “unlimited” paid vacation days, which sounds like a bit of a shady practice. But I’ve already taken 30 days this year and I get absolutely no complaints. I’m planning on taking at least one more week this year.

I can’t imagine not having any vacation days. America sounds nice and all if you’re making 150k+ but I’d hate to work there at median income.

Jokes on you. I don’t have nipples.

I’ve got 1000/1000 fiber for €32, which I think is a pretty good deal in the Netherlands at the moment. I will go back to 100/100 for probably a similar amount after my contract is up as 1000/1000 is simply overkill for our use case. But who knows, maybe I’ll find another deal.
