My favourite is Brave.

Brave and it is not even close. Only browser where I do not need to adjust privacy settings out of the box. On Firefox I need to go hunt for flags...

Just turn off crypto stuff and off you go. Brave Origin will fix that.


Firefox — Everyone loves to play armchair CEO and dictate the ills of the company. But I think they do so because Firefox is largely the only independent rendering engine and with Google's foothold on browsers (to protect their ad revenue) I'm nervous about the future of Blink. Independent players are always good for competition.

Been using Firefox + uBlock Origin for a few years now. The container tabs feature is underrated for separating work/personal contexts. That said, if you want something that just works out of the box with built-in ad blocking, Brave is a solid choice. The tradeoff is you are trusting Brave with your browsing data (they have an ad platform).

I'm used to work with Chrome and so far it's the best for me, i like how it sync with my Android mobile.

Firefox has solid and capable cross-platform sync

I think the best browser is whichever one stays out of way.For me lately that's Brave too.

I prefer Firefox as it is still the only feasible non-chromium alternative.

I have been a firefox user for more than two decades - since it was called Pheonix and later Firebird.


Ladybird coming soon)

I waiting for it release

yes, finally. So good to see another independent browser engine around. I am watching their monthly progress videos on YT and it is quite amazing how well the project has evolved IMO

Anything that can run uBO proper. So, Firefox.

I use Helium.
