    A lot of people use it because it’s been the default for so long, but I’m slowly getting friends and family to swap.

      OK, so ambivalence. I’m lazy, I can get behind that. Also, I appreciate the work you’re doing. I gave up years ago and am still labeled by my family as “the one who cares too much about things that don’t matter.”

        I usually tie it into a discussion about password managers and show them Bitwarden too. Like with my in-laws I did a dark web scan and showed them their own passwords were basically public knowledge. Could they use it with Chrome? Sure. But they want to know they’re secure and they trust me, so I get them on Firefox with a password manager.

        I’m slowly converting my dad on it but the rest of my family likely sees me the same way, lol.
