>>106483430
There really isn't a working alternatives to Chrome?

>random crashes
don't know about this, never happened to me
>spotify
Install spotify with spotx instead of using it in the browser, uBO doesn't work well with it
>>
>>106483405
Try Basilisk, K-Meleon, Dillo... or don't use jeetscript goyslop
>>
>>106483405
Are we talking PC or mobile, just to be sure?

Random crashes are very rare in my experience, and I use it like 15 hours a day and have done so for decades now.

I can't help you with Spotify as I've rarely used it, it seems very annoying to use. But maybe it's an adblocking issue rather than a Firefox one. Or maybe your settings are too strict and it's interfering with something, check under Tools > Settings > Privacy and Security.

>>106483466
You could try Brave or Vivaldi. They're Chromium forks that are sticking with Manifest V2 extensions as far as I know. Brave even has built-in adblocking so it's worth keeping as a backup. Well, technically Vivaldi does as well I think, but it's not as good at adblocking.

Windows PC
I'm going to try Vivaldi

>Install spotify with spotx
Aaaand windows defender just found a trojan inside.
>>
>>106483563
inside of what? just run the script in powershell...
you can read the source code as well and check for le trojan
>>
>>106483563
Not that anon, but are you sure it's not a false positive? Did you get it off their official GitHub page? Maybe upload the installer or executable through VirusTotal and see what percentage deem it suspicious. If it's a small number, it's likely a false positive. And the Issues page on their Git does say that it triggers false positives.
>>
>>106483594
It detected the installation script as a trojan. Might be a false positive ( >>106483603 ) but I don't care enough to risk it.
>>
>>106483622
the github page has 18k stars and the script isn't even long. Do you really think somebody wouldn't have noticed the trojan already?

>spotx
>>106483563
what are the chances spotx will get the same treatment as spotube (pic related)
https://github.com/KRTirtho/spotube
>>
>>106483644
Maybe spotx being a patcher doesn't trigger the spotify corpas as bad as a standalone client. It could definitely happen though, but I think they know that if they shut down one adblocker another will pop up eventually
>>
>>106483405
>>random crashes out of nowhere
Doesn't happen on my system.
>>spotify stops playing randomly and needs to be refreshed
Install brave and use that for web apps.
>>tons of other random issues
Yes.
>>
>>106483641
don't know, don't care
maybe you should actually put the tiniest bit of effort into your software and make sure it isn't flagged as a virus by windows defender if you want me to run it
>>
>>106483709
your loss faggot
>>
>>106483709
That's an unreasonable standard, especially when it comes to piracy. And false positives tend to out themselves by never giving you any details about the virus, just flagging it as generic or potentially unwanted tools or whatever.
>>
>random crashes
NEVER EVER
>spotify
LOL
>>
>>106483709
Don't run anything >>>/g/ tells you.
