If you want people to stop using a thing, make a better thing. These moralistic and political arguments only make you look and sound weak.

You know what sounds weak? “Don’t eat at chicken fila because of politics blah blah blah” But you know what wins customers? Popeyes _MF_!

Values are an integral part of tech design. I think that a lot of people don't use Chrome because of Google's tracking and profiling ecosystem, even though they feel it is a good browser. I prefer to use an open-source product, even if it may not be the best, just because I support open source as an idea. That is not weak.

people don’t use chrome because ads are annoying and because google ads on the front page led them into scam sites. Or because chrome is inefficient. That’s the only reason anyone seems to use brave or safari anyways.
