“That’s why I got off last year or so and went to Brave. As good as FFR and better, started by one of the originators of FF who was fired for supporting marriage means man+woman.”


Have had nothing but bad luck even getting to first base with Brave. Just now tried again, downloaded latest version, and its home page is all about Firefox, complete with a link to download it (wth?) I just don’t get it. I’ve seen Brave recommended and praised to the skies all over the place, but first of all, it doesn’t even have a menu bar at the top, and I have no idea how to function without one... and now a Firefox download link on the default page Brave takes me to?

I’ve been using Firefox already, for years... tried to switch (to Brave, to no avail then either) a few years back, when I got ticked off that I couldn’t import my bookmarks when I got a new HD. Rather than start over, I just got gun-shy about bookmarks in general after that, and kept adding tabs, instead. (Note: You people who talk about having 150 tabs are Amateurs! Seriously, last count on mine was about 6-700 tabs! Which reminds me, I have to weed some of them out, yet again.... What a PITA.)

I use Waterfox, it forked off of Firefox a while back and most or all of the addons will work with it.
It should keep all your bookmarks etc. too.
