4. I mostly use Firefox on mac.

I loaded up a ton of extensions. I want the internet MY WAY!

I used Opera for a while, for the built-in "almost VPN". Interestingly, I got safari, Opera and Firefox all to work with the GhostText extension that mirrors the text box (one of which I'm typing in right now) in one of several text editors, that preserve the text when a network slowdown loses all my typing when I go to preview or post. The text editor never loses the content.

I use safari for fussy websites that trip all over extensions because it's real easy to turn them all off just for that site.

As more sites get blocked, presumably by takedowns, I am using Tor more.

Happy computing.

All the old macs, less one I use for ancient software, are getting linux. It's real easy on Intel CPU's. Only one PPC model left.
