You can turn them off, but good luck keeping firefox up to date.

Yeah but at this point you're fighting against the OS, might as well switch to a distro that already works the way you want.

[–] cevn@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yea… switching requires work though. I got enough of that already :D

Sure, that's why I endured Canonical's BS for almost a year, but when I started my new job I just installed Arch even though Ubuntu was the "safe" choice.

Ah yes, vendor lock-in in desktop linux.

I don't get why anyone thinks this is acceptable in any way.

[–] cevn@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I kinda hate it, but I’m also too lazy to switch on my main desktop. Every new install gets Fedora though.

Or just use Waterfox or LibreWolf?
