    Firefox is used by less than 3% of the users, it should not be used in this sentence. Also I’m not sure they’ll implement the integrity thing, which is another issue.

      I agree Firefox doesn’t have a large share of the browsers, but if you are basing it on user share then the only mainstream browsers are safari and chrome. However, the term third party is generally utilized as a fork of a primary access point or is the access point via another means, even if it’s original.

      For example, the apps to access lemmy are third party as they are not created by the original devs for lemmy. In this argument FF is classified as first party not third.

      Don’t get me wrong I understood what you were trying to say, but based on your reply then pretty much chrome would be the only mainstream browser.

        And that’s exactly what Google wants. Everything already works best with Google Chrome, so what’s wrong a little more incentive to convert more users into using a telemetry-laden spyware browser?

          very true, but if you remember correctly a similar thought process killed IE, and is now harming Edge on windows. The only draw back is everyone wants to use chrome, not realizing how much info they are handing out to Google. Many just don’t care, and yet they will gladly complain about privacy on other matters.
