Chromium has better features, but with google announcing its plan to ‘drm the internet’ I 'm not sure if it’d be a good idea.

    If Iron is built on Chromium, which its website says that it is, it will be affected by Google’s upcoming changes.

      I wasn’t suggesting the OP should use Iron instead of Firefox. I was pointing out one drawback of (locked down) Firefox and noting a slightly better alternative to Chrome which has all the functionality and less of the spying.

      My choice is to use both because a very small proportion of sites won’t work with Firefox on high privacy settings. Sites which force me to use lower privacy standards are used (quarantined) in a separate browser.
