5 reasons why Firefox is still my favorite browser - and deserves more respect

zdnet.com Lance Whitney 2025-12-21 10:55:56

Finally, there's something to be said for supporting the underdog. In the Windows desktop browser arena, Chrome is still the top dog by far (though some of the upcoming AI-based browsers may start nipping at its heels). Edge is in second place. That puts Firefox in third. But I think the browser should be defined by much more than its third-place status.

Should you buy a refurbished iPad? I tried one from Back Market and here's my verdict

Maria Diaz/ZDNET I'm no stranger to refurbished products. While buying refurbished or renewed isn't always my first go-to, I did purchase a refurbished 2019 Apple iMac in 2020 that still gets daily use.
