As the years go by and the Internet becomes a more important part of our lives, browsers gain in importance. Hence, every time we use them for longer, be it Chrome, Firefox, Edge or any other.
It is true that at the moment we can opt for a good number of very interesting applications of this same type. At a time when we could say that the new Edge is the most current proposal, and with a clear leadership of Chrome, we cannot leave out Mozilla’s Firefox .
This has been for many years the second most used proposal of this type in the world, but it has not achieved its main objective. This was none other than trying to get closer to Google’s software, Chrome, since it has managed to keep its distance. We cannot forget that this program has a market penetration of around 70%, which is not little. Therefore, giving it scope for the rest of the competitors is not an easy task at all. In fact alternatives such as the aforementioned Firefox , sometimes it is even better than what the sector leader can present us, as we are going to talk to you next.
But the vast majority of Internet users, for one reason or another, still cling to the software of the search giant, although sometimes experimenting can give us more than one surprise.
Firefox privacy
One of the main objectives that Mozilla has set itself from the beginning of Firefox, was to take care of the privacy of its users . For this, over time it has been implementing new functions related to all this. With this, what is intended is that those who opt for this proposal, do not fear that the company will make unwanted use of navigation data. In fact, this is one of the main complaints that many of the followers of Chrome present regarding certain practices of Google with their project. Therefore Mozilla has always wanted to stand out in this regard.
Consumption of resources
In addition, another of the most common complaints that many present with respect to other alternatives to surf the Internet , is the high consumption of resources. Here special reference is made to the RAM memory of the PC. Therefore, Mozilla has been working hard for a long time, all in order to prevent its program from falling into this same error, or at least not in such a serious way.
Exclusive extensions
A very important element in this type of program in particular is its extensions. These are small software elements that we add to the browser itself in order to increase its functionality and security in some aspects. It is true that programs of this type that are based on Chromium have many more extensions available than those we can use in Firefox. However, here we will find some of these very interesting exclusive add-ons that we will not see in the rest of the programs and that will make us get hooked on Firefox.
