Here I am using browsers like apps. Chrome is my facebook app. I do zero else with it lol.

but really, my solution works fine. Is another 200MB on your SSD really that big of a sacrifice? I have Firefox, Chrome(in a fucking container where it belongs) and Librewolf installed lol.

I have sort of the same three browsers on all my machines.

LibreWolf: to use

Firefox: it's the default browser and feels like it should still be installed. And just a couple times a year some website has a strange issue in LibreWolf but will work in Firefox. Honestly I'd rather do it this way than start weakening LibreWolf's settings to make outlier sites work.

Ungoogled Chromium: I'm sure it will come in handy some day.

Even though I'm aware Google would still have a lot of my data even if I deleted everything possible, one of the main reasons I swapped (apart from the manifest V3 controversy) was the privacy problem (yes, I know, I'm still using Facebook, regardless). I haven't thought of the container aspect, though - thanks for that.
