Hi Aravisian!
It might feel too heavy (or not) my saying that your presence in this forum contributed to my investment on Zorin OS across my computers.
I've said that only to show you my respect and appreciation for what you do for most of us here. (I've bookmarked many of your replies, such as Fonts: Questions, doubts, uninstalling & Packages. It is one my go-to to save precious disk space in a 128SDD!
Nevertheless, I took your answer about the Zorin economics seriously, and appreciate your always kind manner to address us, the newbies!
I totally agreed on what you had to say about "It should feel like the shackles have fallen away and you can launch the desktop and focus on your own interests and tasks and have finally escaped the politically charged and controversy and control of Windows OS.
Instead...
New users are immediately mired in the political and controversy." THAT I felt on Zorin 17.3. Regardless of the default browser.
My intervention on this specific debate intends just to deal with the apparent dichotomy between users of this or that browser. I hate to spend time downloading a browser I will not use. Because I am built like many others. And that is the only reason I vouched for what seemns to be an undercooked and underskilled browser as an amenable brigde to downloading our preferred browser.
Lets get out of this maze by taking a different vantage point, one that lets us see the maze from above and avoid a maze that makes you hurt at every turn.
