No Floorp users? It's a Firefox fork with a focus on UI/UX, it has built-in options for things like vertical tabs, different themes (not just colors), integrated translate, ublock by default, that sort of thing. Kind of like a Firefox-based equivalent of Vivaldi, I've been really enjoying it. Honestly though I'd just be using Vivaldi if it wasn't chromium-based and closed source.

I'm not really happy with anything on mobile though. Vivaldi is super smooth to use but no extensions and privacy is ehh. Firefox / forks are really nice for extension support but the UI is atrocious.

Begrudgingly Firefox (with uBlock and Arkenfox) for websites I don't trust. I would rather use qutebrowser or badwolf, which I save for websites I do trust.

One more for Firefox. It's at a nice point in terms of features vs privacy. Of the big, household name browsers, Firefox is far better than Chrome or Safari in terms of privacy. It's much worse than all those niche tech-enthusiast browsers, but those all lack the robust suite of features and extensions that Firefox has.

Sounds interesting!

Brave and Firefox, I kinda dual weld them as both are good.

Up until recently I was using Safari both on mobile and desktop, because I really like the browser sync, but I got tired of the lack of good extensions on Safari for macOS. Problem is that all non-Safari browsers on iOS have no extensions at all, so I have to keep using it there. So now I use Safari on iOS, Firefox on macOS, and I have a tiny Safari window open on my Mac listing synced tabs, and I use a Shortcut that I made to send tabs from Safari directly to Firefox, and then go back to the synced tabs list in Safari.

I'm a Safari user these days. My browser journey is along the lines of IE > Firefox (when it was called firebird) > Safari > Chrome > Vivaldi > Safari.

Some stuff doesn't work great in Safari and I keep Vivaldi knocking about for when I need Chromium, but I tend to find that Safari meets most of my needs these days, and the compact tab layout and lack of tab management features stops me from engaging in my natural habit of spamming tabs all about the place.

I checked out Floorp as it was mentioned here and it unfortunately has the same problem as FF in that you can't set a default page for a new tab? I have no idea why FF doesn't have this and it's a total dealbreaker for me.

I mainly use librewolf becuz I don't need to setup arkenfox everytime I install firefox. Ungoogled chromium is a good one. Thorium is another one with some nice features and speed but It is always a version or two behind upstream chromium so there's that. Just stick to what works best for you.

tl;dr: I switched to Librewolf.

(Warning: This is probably overly dramatic)

So, yesterday I opened Firefox, and apparently Firefox had placed ads in the frequently visited websites section on new tabs... What I did not like. At all.

And to make it more fun, today, for some reason Firefox just 'broke' and I could not use the browser. At all. I was able to recover the passwords I had stored, but AFIAK my browsing history and my bookmarks are lost.

What sucks. a lot.

After the ad thingy, I already was thinking of switching from firefox to another browser. Now that Firefox just decides to break randomly, now that is the last straw.

Hopefully this does not happen with Librewolf, but I'll see.

firefox esr. it just werks... until it doesnt. responsive design mode has been broken since 128 esr and is still fucked. i also use supermium for testing chromium compatability with my websites and for using websites that don't work properly or at all in firefox. i'd use pale moon or seamonkey if it could properly handle the soykaf-ridden modern web. mostly for their actually reasonable ui and for their devs making no "because we could" or "because it makes us money" decisions

Firefox Developer Edition is my current browser, but I also am trying to use XLinks more via the terminals. Most websites I use could actually work on the terminals surprisingly, albeit not enough of them to be able to swap over outright unless I did stuff like installed more clients. For example, I currently use Discord over the web-browser, so terminals are out. However, I do intend to go fully terminal in the inevitable future, and just keep an extremely small GUI browser sitting around when necessary, if it ever is. I will avoid bank accounts as much as possible, opting for cash and gold, even crypto over giving money to the banks. That is the main thing I can't just replace, so I should be good otherwise. I can stay in an area of the internet which doesn't require GUI browsers for proper use of websites, except for things which are controlled by corporations or governments. Email, XMPP, IRC, and likely even Mumble have terminal options. But a bank-account website won't just have a terminal alternative sitting around.
