Dissenter is pretty fast. Its chromium engine is built off of Brave. I am using it to respond to you.
Just loaded Dissenter. Had it up and running in about 10 minutes. So far looks much like Firefox. Migrated my bookmarks and static tabs. Seems fast and crisp.
One major complaint I had with FF was the amount of memory it accumulates. I say, "accumulates" rather than "uses" because I'm pretty convinced the large volume is caused by a memory leak. At times, it climbs to 2.5 GBytes or more. So far, Dissenter is at 500 MBytes compared to 1.3 GBytes for Firefox.
I'll keep FF round for a bit to make sure there are not some capabilities that are unique to FF - ie video dowload ... etc. Might be a new home after about 15 years with FF.

If you want to keep using FF for anything just use Waterfox instead.

I'll add that Dissenter also migrated all my logins and passwords - more than a hundred. Impressive on many counts.

I just loaded Brave and now you mention Dissenter.
Is there a big difference? Is Brave untrustworthy too, like FF?
I am not a techie.
Thanks.
