    Honestly, I’m starting to think in terms of what really would it look like to not use a (Firefox- or Webkit-based) browser any more.

    Aside from random one-off things I wouldn’t know I wanted to use until I wanted to use it, a few things I’d want to be able to use on my desktop Gentoo machine:

    • Discord (without installing the proprietary dedicated app, though I don’t currently give a fuck about video or audio – just chat)
    • Lemmy (I might literally write my own client if necessary, but I’m curious about Neon Modem)
    • YouTube (Minitube’s not terrible)
    • Wikipedia (Dillo would probably work ok for Wikipedia, though I’d definitely lose features like link hovering previous and such)
    • Twitch (No idea how to do that yet)
    • Gmail (Mutt, maybe? Though, honestly, I should quit Gmail and get another provider anyway.)
    • Various relatively-mainstream news sites and blogs (Dillo? RSS readers?)

    There are probably plenty of things I’m not thinking of. We’ll see if I ever do that or not.

    “Firefox, the only browser that hasn’t been hitting itself in the dick”

    Lol. Lmao even.

    How do you think they got from 10% share years ago to the 2℅ they have now?
