As @erotador@lemmy.blahaj.zone said, default Firefox is still more private than Chrome. Also, if you want security (and more privacy) on top of that, you should look into LibreWolf. I've been using it for a few years now and it's fantastic!

HELL YEAH! YOU GO GIRL!
Oh...... Ew. I already hate them.
What's Black Rock? Never heard of them.
- Profit?
This is why I still use a card instead of those newfangled "phone wallets". If I go on PayPal or my bank website, I do so through my browser. (and log out when I'm done—that's most important!)
Not a bad set of promising suggestions... Thanks!
And yeah, I've found Proton to be invaluable for making things soooo much easier, but if a game doesn't have a page, it's not as easy. Lol.
Yeah, I don't really buy most of my games through Steam. Mainly just GOG since I like to own my games. Still, I will buy from time to time games on Steam, like with the Portal/Half-Life sale like half a year ago or whatever, to support Valve, which is a good company and I respect them a lot.
Pshh, hardly.
Make no mistake: things can always get worse.
They cancel each other out, collapse into a black hole, and rip apart the Universe. /j
I've been using Linux Mint for the last 1–2 months (or so) and one of the things I miss the most is how on Windows, games just run (typically). Now, on Linux, one of the very first things I do upon wanting to play a new game is check the ProtonDb page. I am not always able to play the game I want. There's often not even any ProtonDb page for a lot of older games, notably in my case Jazz Jackrabbit. (For example, even though the Jazz Jackrabbit Collection on GOG has a Linux installer, for some reason it won't run.)
Make no mistake, I ain't never going back to Windows for my personal use if I have anything to say about it. The sense of personal security I feel from not having my every move be captured, scrutinized, and sold by Microsoft is way too important to me. If I can have that feeling of relative comfort by forgoing a few games, it seems like a worthwhile price to me.
Nevertheless, the "plug-and-play" nature of games designed for Windows is something I miss.
I will say as nice as Zen seems (I agree that it's not bad), I don't really like the whole "vertical tabs" shtick. I mean, I can see why some people would like that, but personally I never got into it. It just looks weird to me and I like seeing more of my tab names (weirdly enough that's exactly what a lot of pro-vertical users claim is good about them lol).
Also, from a privacy standpoint, not a huge fan personally of the fact that unlike LibreWolf, Zen Browser doesn't have ResistFingerprinting enabled by default (not sure if it's even in there tbh).
