I know you can play the game at chrome://dino, but it doesn't evoke the same nostalgic feeling of a 10yr old me turning on aeroplane mode and spamming space bar to try and beat my brother's high score. Good memories.

I use ungoogled (degoggled?) Chromium if the website decides to be difficult and doesn't like FF (i use waterfox but same difference lol)

[–] odium@programming.dev 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I use firefox/librewolf for everything and keep a chromium based browser around for those rare websites that don't work well on Firefox (fuck you google drive, ik you're doing it on purpose).

Anyone tried edge://surf/ ?

[–] rmstyle@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

Yes, the surf game is way more fun than the dino in my opinion!

[–] StewartGilligan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

It's okay. It doesn't exactly make me feel anything though. Most of the games I enjoy are ones that make me feel a particular emotion.

Vivaldi rules as usual with a full blown, cyberpunk themed platformer for when there's no internet

But Linux comes with Firefox usually.

Anyone remember the spy hunter car game built into MS excel 2000? Shit was the goat.

[–] MxM111@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

I forgot about the dino game. I tried it. I got a score of 666. Preserving the score.

Firefox as daily browser and Edge for work/sites that don't work with FF. Chrome is redundant there

Firefox for me, and then edge if I have issues with it. I used edge on its own for a while but I got tired of that homepage it keeps reverting back to for some reason

Waterfox most of the time, Vivaldi for when I can't be bothered to whitelist individual scripts.

Clown world. I use Microsoft spyware to install Google spyware instead. I am an intellectual

[–] milkytoast@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

I use edge whenever sites decide they hate ff

[–] TheWorstNL@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

And I use Edge for when a website doesn't work because of one of the privacy addons: some websites don't like to have the referrer removed, domains blocked or user agent switched.

[–] sockmedic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Been using Firefox more once I found out I could have tweaked extensions to mimic Edge's vertical tabs

Though I still have Edge for YouTube uploads, for some reason uploading on Firefox is slow

When there's no internet I head into my file explorer and open up games that I installed a while ago but never played.
