I don't "bypass" Chrome when they want to melt my brain with their business model, I use Firefox. I don't "bypass" Windows when they want to melt my brain with their business model, I use Linux. No idea why so many "hackers" doing "bypasses" can't instead take action that is simpler, long lasting, and easier. Do people need to jerked around 50 times for 20 years before realizing it will keep happening and their "bypasses" are just temporary bandaids?

I'm with you with this idea but relying on firefox is not much better. I use PWAs a lot and Firefox decided that PWAs are not worth implementing or maintaining their past implementation.

I still use firefox 70% of the time but this is wrong and go against what the users want.

+1 to this. This is probably the only thing that keeps me from ditching Chrome/Brave and going back to Firefox.

Floorp is a popular Firefox fork with PWAs enabled.
