I use geh Firefox forks mull and fennec, I occasionally use vanadium. I just like privacy but tor is overkill for me
Firefox because it’s one of the last browsers against the Chromium monopoly.
Also UBlock Origin is wayy better on Firefox, even before Google forced their version of Manifest v3 on all Chromium based browsers.
I just use Vanilla Firefox, I use chrome for work but all my personal stuff on Firefox, left chrome after there was talk of stopping ad blockers.
Firefox, because a) open source, b) ad blocking, and c) fuck Google and other corporate overlords.
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.
Firefox, and ill continue to use it for as long as possible. No thanks Chromium.
Firefox or Vivaldi on pc & notebook, Vanadium & Fennec on Android - Grapheneos.
Good to see another grapheneos user
I use Vivaldi, because it just has a better UI and better usability features.
I use Firefox.
It’s 90% because I remember the days of Internet Explorer and how they had a monopoly and could do whatever they liked - and they did. It was pretty common to have to write two versions of code so that it would work on IE as well as other browsers.
These days Edge, Chrome, Opera, Brave, Vivaldi, pretty much all the major browsers except Firefox all use the Chromium engine, which puts them in a similar position as IE were in during the 90s and early 2000s. It scares me, so I use Firefox.
Firefox. Fascinating what a bubble of Firefox user is active here. Should be way different with most statistics show a lot more chrome users.
Lemmy and the fediverse contain ore tech savvy people. Surprised its not hardened Firefox
Firefox.
I’ve been using it since the Phoenix days. I occasionally go to Vivaldi (which is currently my secondary browser), but currently I’m back with Firefox.
Firefox, Epiphany web browser and midori. When I’m using windows I use Firefox.
I like Epiphany, but I think it leaks memory or something. After running for a while it starts taking tons of memory and closing tabs doesn’t seem to release it (the computer goes back to normal when it’s closed completely though). Maybe it’s just the Fedora build, I’m not sure
There’s also Otter Browser for another WebKit based choice, but it’s pretty rough and developed slowly
I haven’t experienced that. It’s been running smoothly when I’ve used it.
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).
Same for me, but I’ve started using fulguris on android. I think it just uses the android webrenderer unfortunately, but it is open source.
i stand corrected: i just found an incredible browser, allowing html file import and a lot more!: soul browser. Now also testing as my main browser
I just recently switched to Arc, and it is soo good. Really changing my workflow for the better. So nice to experience a product where people have opiniated ideas about how something can be done differently. It might not be for everyone, but damn its something for me.
Loving Arc! I kinda like how it doesn’t really make a distinction between tabs and favorites, and at the same time I kinda don’t.
Do you have a solution for links you want to have access to someday but don’t really want as pinned tabs or favorites? I have some pinned tab folders at the moment, but I don’t love that solution. I’ve used Pinboard in the past but, 1) I feel like that product is dying and 2) I’d like tighter browser integration.
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 :)
What is arc?
A fairly new browser based on chromium
Cool but chromium :(
I’m in web dev, so I have a bunch of browsers. My main driver on my desktop is Librewolf with a bunch of extensions that make browsing the web enjoyable at best and tolerable at worst. I use DuckDuckGo Lite as my main search engine on all my browsers.
Other browsers I use are Brave (main browser on my mobile device). Vanilla Firefox (for web dev or logging in as Librewolf isn’t best for many aspects of web development and many sites trip up when you try to log in with LW). Ungoogled Chromium when Brave is too slow (Brave is slowest of the ones I use).
I also read news from the Links terminal browser. Yes the original Links Browser, not Lynx, or elinks, or links2, or w3m, etc.
I don’t use Chrome, Opera, Vivaldi, Edge. I use Safari sparingly just to be sure some of my sites are working on it. I have played around with Tor, but generally don’t have a need to set anything up on the Dark Web at the time of this writing, so yeah.
