This $30 a month browser wants to fix the worst thing about Chrome

[Chris Smith]

Chrome is the world’s most popular browser because it’s made by one of the biggest software developers in the world: Google. That’s also the reason why Chrome is free to use. The majority of Google’s products are available for free because users effectively pay for access with their data. Google collects information to sell targeted ads, and those ads pay for things like Chrome.

But Chrome is hardly perfect. Google might be adding new, valuable features to the browser regularly, but it’s also making controversial changes, like the new FLoC tech to track users now that third-party cookies are going away. And while that’s the kind of problem that users can fix, a huge Chrome issue remains that users have no say about. Chrome can be a massive resource hog, which is incredibly annoying on laptops. Chrome consumes battery power as it uses more resources, and it’s often the app that will turn on your notebook's fans to cool off the device.

There is a way to fix all of that if you’re willing to pay $30 a month for a faster web browsing experience that’s still based on Chrome, but one that will not eat your battery like Chrome does: The Mighty browser.
