Discussion: #1: Mustafa Muhammad (mustafa_muhammad) (2014-11-15 06:53:32) I think Firefox is more "Free" than Chromium, the "ads" are not intrusive, they don't collect personally identifiable data, and can be disabled with a selection from a button on the start page! If you want to disable them, disable them in the default configuration we ship, nothing more is needed.

And till now firefox hasn't sold any ad on my browser. + #4: Felix Miata (mrmazda) (2015-05-05 12:13:54) + Chrom* browser UI ignores desktop density, presuming 96 DPI regardless + of what DPI actually is. Consequently, its UI becomes decreasingly + legible as actual DPI is increased. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/318159
