On Sidelining Safari – The Jolly Teapot

April 26, 2026

Yesterday, I read Nicolas Magand's blog post, "Sidelining Safari," which I found interesting because I recently switched to Firefox from Safari. He, too, switched, opting for Helium, a Chromium-based browser. I decided to check it out and have since set it as my default browser.

I have two issues with Firefox: its lack of AppleScript compatibility and its failure to integrate with Things' quick entry autofill. I use both of these features fairly often, and since they are compatible with Helium, it may be a better choice.
