Mayayana,

I guess I think of it kind of like.... FF is a flakey but
well meaning friend who often shows up trying to
sell me some new junk.

:-) Not a too-bad description.

I do regard it as one of my less trustworthy friends though, ever since
they started to cozy up to advertising. If they would not have done
that I would probably not even have batted an eye in regard to its "lets
call home" behaviour. Simply said: I don't trust them anymore.

So in context, FF seems like a nice guy.

True. I just wish I could find myself a less complex/conflicted friend
though ... :-)

Heck, I would probably still running FF with a single-digit version number
if the changed encryption standards had not forced my hand ...

Same here. Like Mayayana, I've got Pale Moon as my second browser, and it
definitely is faster loading. And having both of them has come in handy at
times. :-) I would say PM is less invasive, but occasionally doesn't work
as well as the new FF on some sites.
