Currently a university student, and somewhat frequently, I see Firefox installed on people’s laptops but they also have Chrome installed and are using Chrome, or Edge, or Safari. Rarely do I see Firefox actually being used but I see it installed frequently. Does anyone have a clue as to why they have it installed?

Yea I know Chromium monopoly and open source browser and whatnot but the average Andy does not know what any of that is.

    I’m a normie who uses firefox because it’s the default in my Fedora machine. On windows I just use edge. While on my Android phone, I use it because I like having extensions.

      Are you a normie if you’re using Linux though? (I’m on Silverblue…. Not a normie)

        I think most people who have found themselves on the fediverse are probably not normies, even if they might think so.
