The popup is absolutely disgusting. I would love to think this would backfire and push more people towards Firefox but their target is obviously not HN readers, they know what they are doing.

I am gonna make a generalization but HN readers is not the demographic pushing for Firefox usage and when they do it's usually for the wrong reason: "performance".

  • Which is false BTW, unless you are using some Google services optimized for Chrome, such as Google Sheets.

I was wondering why I didn't see this popup and realized that I've been using Firefox for almost a year now. Haven't looked back.
