Right on about Kissinger! Just for that, I have to upvote.
Anyway, I'm using Firefox as well, it's getting laggy for some reason but not sure if it's better to use Chrome just so Google can spy on me. That's a difficult situation. Wonder if we can make a browser that's just barebones...
I've read that Pale Moon worked well for someone; haven't tried it.
This new $4k laptop with a 4K screen (I like that duality :) ) is bogging down; opening a new tab in Firefox, or even, reloading a tab that I already had open, takes five to ten seconds. That's unacceptable, when Chrome takes less than a second!
And, I've started moving "a window at a time" over to Chrome (a bunch of Alt+Tab, Ctrl+Tab Ctrl+L Ctrl+C Ctrl+W, Alt+Tab, Ctrl+T Ctrl+V; repeat until all the tabs in the Firefox window have been closed) -- and Firefox is still behaving slowly! So, looks like it's a total migration in the near future.
Thanks for the upvote and agreement! :)
