Hi. I'm on lemmy. I haven't switched. Why? Because there an insane amount of incorporation into Google. Email, my phone communicating to pc, passwords, auto fill, saved cookies, credit cards.
I want to switch. I want to get off chrome from what I've been reading regarding it's practices. But I'm so engraved and the undertaking of switching is not something I've committed to yet. Or might never. I already have a Google Home in my kitchen. I feel like privacy isn't something I have a privilege of anymore.
They've got me.

Firefox makes it easy to import all that stuff
Huh. Wow. And it has mobile to pc incorporation?
Honestly for me it has much better synching. It took a little work to move everything over, but far less than I anticipated.
