      That depends a lot on your definition of “better”. For most people, ChromeOS will do everything they want with a minimum of tweaking.

          Privacy? - Propaganda.

          Linux evangelists think every mention of telemetry is spyware and ignore it in Firefox (and excuse it as 3rd party when it’s included in most desktop distro installations). -“It’s not loonix fault”

            True, the vast majority of the time less telemetry is better than more telemetry for privacy, and Firefox is just a google puppet anyway, so that we can pretend that the average person wants to use something other than Chrome or the default browser. And not all telemetry is bad and is needed for R&D. But the option to opt-out (or even out-in) is needed for good faith building.

              The settings menu has check boxes for opting out. I choose to allow often to ‘help improve freatures’.
