PC: Qutebrowser (nice, quick, and good native keybinds)
iOS: Ecosia (fork of Firefox app that I think is better for my use considering I use Ecosia as my search engine)
Qutebrowser
That's what i call based
Mostly Safari since I am part of the golden cage anyway. If something does not work there, I fall back to Firefox.
Firefox or Vivaldi on pc & notebook, Vanadium & Fennec on Android - Grapheneos.
Good to see another grapheneos user
After a long time of using Chromium browsers (from Chrome to Brave to Edge to Vivaldi) I ended up back at good old Firefox again. On Mac I just use either Safari or Firefox. There's been a time where I was particularly unhappy with Firefox, as at the time it felt sluggish to me. Now it's the exact opposite. I've become very frustrated with how sluggish Chromium browsers can be. While I appreciate the efforts of the Vivaldi crew I think I'm just happier with Firefox.
Wish I could figure out why clicking on my downloads in the download list doesn't open them, though (I'm on KDE Neon).
I use Brave. It's not perfect but I like the built-in adblock and the crypto stuff is an added bonus.
Currently using vanilla Firefox with https://github.com/black7375/Firefox-UI-Fix to make the tabs look like actual tabs rather than weird floaty bubbles.
Used to use Chromium, but switched because they made it so that sites could autoplay videos in response to "user interactions", whatever that means.
TBH, not that happy with the current state of browsers; too much telemetry and not enough customizability.
I had Firefox running with custom CSS for a long while but then (on two different machines) I got a weird bug that increasingly led websites to time out while loading. Had to wait out the time out (reloading during didn't help) and then after time out it immediately loaded after an F5.
I switched to Vivaldi after that because it could be customized to pretty much exactly how I had my Firefox with minimal custom CSS.
I recently switched from Firefox to Arc, which is in closed beta right now. It has a great Tab management. If anyone is interested I can send you an invite :)
Good ole Firefox for me! Can't say it's ever really let me down, and I've never had a problem finding extensions for it either (which other friends of mine say that they can't...)
And while I don't do a lot of web development, every now and then I'll dabble into it and FF's dev tools are pretty nice as well.
Vivaldi, mostly because of the βquick commandsβ keyboard navigation. Opens an Alfred / Spotlight style input, type what you want and jump right to that feature or toggle or website or whatever. Love me some good keyboard based nav. Definitely one to check out for anyone used to working a lot with Sublime.
@Bicyclejohn Firefox, I don't know why, I suppose that I used it always.
Then I use Brave for pages which are optimized only for Chrome (unfortunately a lot of official portals in my place).
In mobile devices Brave and the native (Samsung Internet) I haven't checked Firefox yet.
librewolf on the desktop. works for me. Came from vivaldi, which is too big for my old laptop setup (takes ages to load). Using fennec on android. But, recently i needed a browser for android which allows a bookmark.html file to be imported (camera froze with sync) and couldn't find one. everything today MUST go over the sync (cloud).
cough chrome. It just works. I've been sucked into the g-verse of things. I was a long time f-fox user but there was a particular print to pdf instance that I couldn't do any longer on f-fox, so I just surrendered
Used Waterfox and Vivaldi for a while, but had to go back to Chromium. My daily driver is an old HP mini PC running the latest Linux Mint. Both Waterfox and Vivaldi seemed ok at first, but after a while, things just got too slow and both just seemed not to function as they should. Could just be that my machine is too old to keep up, but chromium runs fine.
Aside from needing to have grapheneOS, Is there any reason not to use vandium on mobile?
I've been using Edge on my PC and phone for a while, but I'm going to be giving Firefox a shot for a while on everything now since Edge's UI is kinda bad on android tablets. The bottom navigation bar is great on phones also.
Brave - works mobile and desktop for me.
Chrome. The browser is still great and Google's already in my bedroom. I donate to Mozilla Foundation. I secretly hope that Mozilla takes over a Chromium fork.
PC - Librewolf, Firefox, and very rarely Brave
Phone - Mull and Firefox Nightly
Mozilla Firefox and Brave, I would say about 85% of my time is spent in Firefox, 15% are webpages that won't cooperate without using Chromium.
