I agree that Chrome fucking sucks, but it’s disingenuous to call it unoptimized. Chrome and chromium-based browsers are as fast as or faster than Firefox. Although I agree that manifest V3 is horrible to the web as a whole and shouldn’t have been created.
I was exaggerating to make a point. But one of the main reasons why I switched to Firefox (about a year ago) was because it was eating up so much of my CPU.
AFAIK the built-in translator doesn’t support Japanese, which is 99% of translation I need and the extension (which is what is was trying to use before) either requires you to select the text that you want to translate one-by-one or run the whole page through translate.google.com, which doesn’t work with any page that requires an account to access or triggers ddos protection on some others.
Fuck chrome. Such a dogshit unoptimized spyware browser that now disables ad-blocking plugins

It also eats up like 99% of your CPU
Single browser open? Lemme fire up a dozen .exe processes there…
Have you used chrome or chromium in the past few years? Source?

Their plugins were fucked from the beginning. You never had control of your extensions.
The problem for me is that the built-in translator is too convenient
Pretty sure Firefox have that too
*For a limited set of languages. Until they add Japanese I won’t be getting much use from it, sadly.
Firefox has translation now, too, on both mobile and desktop.
And you can optionally add the Google Translate extension to desktop Firefox if you want. (It really is convenient, isn’t it?)
And you can always just plug in the URL of whatever page you’re trying to translate directly into https://translate.google.com/.

Yeah, I think Firefox’s translation feature is technically still in beta.
Safari also has it built in. This person is just saying shit to say shit I guess.
