Greetings! I have recently ditched google and went with privacy focused alternatives. Such as SearXNG, Invidious, Lemmy etc.

However, while i was using degoogled chromium, i cant install extensions.

Is there any way i can install extensions on Degoogled Chromium? (ik this isnt the right place to ask but eh)

Thanks a lot!

            Wait… You have encountered a website that doesn’t work on Firefox? :/ Like finding a needle in a haystack.

              This is more common than you think. It’s usually not broken entirely, but firefox constantly breaks styling/css stuff on websites I use and build. I’ve had a few sites ask me to switch browsers because firefox doesn’t support x y or z feature too

              edit: for example, WebGPU support is currently lacking in FF https://github.com/gpuweb/gpuweb/wiki/Implementation-Status

              I use firefox, but I’m not blind to its few problems

                Never noticed an issue and if websites using only chrome supported features, it’s an issue with the website, not the browser.

                  That’s one way to look at it. If a website works perfectly on chromium, but not firefox, why is this the website’s fault?

                    Because in web development there are compatibility tables of what features work with which browser. If a developer has used a feature poorly supported, they either haven’t done their homework, or intentionally made that call.

                    In web development, most reputable Front End Devs would not choose bleeding edge, barely supported features even if the temptation was there because the user comes first. Generally, you wait until it has been adopted by the main browsers (chrome, safari, ff).
