How would I go about transferring my stored passwords from Chrome to Firefox?
Switch to a dedicated password manager - Bitwarden for example.
Then you can try any browser. Firefox definitely wouldn't be my choice but it is better than Chrome.
What browser would you recommend then?
It's a good idea to stop storing your passwords in your browser and use a password manager instead.
FYI, while this is a terrible move, it does not allow advertisers to see your browsing history like you said. Google looks into your history, the advertiser gives them ads and Google serves the ads to the users they think will like it. The advertiser never sees any of your data. Ironically, Google's advertising system is the safest compared to systems like Meta's.
But the advertisers do see the demographics and effectiveness of their ads being served. That's a pretty good peek into browser histories, even though it's not as minute as the statement leads you to believe.
Still, it's too much.
Glad I'm not using Chrome.
(uses a different browser)
Have fun with that
Time to move most of my browsing to FF. It's already somewhere around 80% FF.
I looked up "audiophool" on Chrome and I looked in my ad preferences and it started recommending stuff about speakers
edit: grammar
Sounds like a great and exciting innovation. I can’t wait to see more relevant ads based on my own personal interests!
Seems that 5 people can't read sarcasm and is prolly part of the /s gang
Fucking hell I am sick of having to switch browsers every few years.
Why would you need to? Did you ever trust chrome? And google?
Great, can't wait to see ads for take out food, and small appliance repair.
These sneaky foxes should be fired.
EDIT: it seems nobody wants to fire a fox. That almost drives me to the edge but I guess I'll just try to be brave and think of it as a safari.
But it was always Chrome 'feature' its google my activity feature.
