    Parall - The Parallel App Launcher for macOS

    Safari vs. Helium memory usage

    I've dipped my toe back into the world of Chromium browsers lately and it has led me to being quite unimpressed with Safari's memory management. I did a very simple test with four browsers. Safari and Helium were originally the two I was comparing but I also brought in Orion and Vivaldi for...

    Chrome privacy

    Since I have a Mac and an Android phone, I'm not sure what to do for cross-platform sync. If I pick Chrome, I don't have to download any new browser on my Android device. However, I also need privacy.

    Website best viewed in…not Safari

    I often see this on websites: “This website is best viewed in the following browsers: Chrome Firefox Edge”. Chrome is always listed first, Firefox second. Once in a while Edge. But NEVER Safari. Why? And why does every website cream their pants over Chrome? I don’t trust Chrome. It’s Google...

    How do I export Safari bookmarks?

    I can't sync the bookmarks on my iPad Pro to Safari on my MacBook Pro (2013) because it's too old and can't even update anymore.

    I want to switch to Firefox, but I can't.

    (This is a problem I have on PC and Mac but it's the same on both so it doesn't really matter.) I hate Chrome. Sure, it's a nice browser, but the only thing keeping me on Chrome was Tab Groups and Extensions. I just found out that Firefox has all of my extensions. So I switched to FF! But I...
