    I’ve stayed away from Firefox for almost a decade because I don’t like the way that it functions (and I generally don’t like Mozilla as a company) even though objectively it’s a better browser.

    I’ve been using Zen for the past few days and I really enjoy it.

      I’ll have to give it a shot then. I’m also not happy w/ Mozilla and I don’t really care too much about Firefox’s features, but I do want to support engine diversity, so I stick with it.

      So Zen might just be my cup of tea. As long as I can block ads, use my password manager, sync tabs across my devices, and it’s not based on Chromium, I’m happy. Bonus points if I can self-host the tab syncing.

        Has there been any progress in self-hosting sync server since Mozilla abandoned the old version a few years ago and created a behemoth with some exotic database that requires lots of resources?

          Idk, I haven’t gotten to it yet on my self-hosting journey (still working on eliminating Google). Hopefully someone else has a good answer.
