Since currently Lemmy is mostly made up of nerds, I’d like to know what browsers you use and why? You could just upvote the comment with your browser of choice if you don’t want to explain.
firefox
on mobile am preparing to move to iceraven
Firefox for the past 19 years. No need to change at this point.
Firefox
Firefox on desktop & mobile
Firefox with ublock always
Firefox.
Firefox with a load of plugins. Mostly adblockers, cookie blockers, and one that automatically runs through the dark patterns that are cookie prompts and rejects all the cookies it can.

What extension is this?
Consent-o-matic. This is their github page, the links to both the Chrome and Firefox addon store links are somewhere right there.
Arc (only on Mac for now), still not completely mature but I hope they improve performance and stability in the future, as the core ideas are pretty great
Their spaces, pinned tabs and splitted views really make for a great experience
Also a fan of Arc. When I first started using it a year ago I thought it would be temporary but it quickly became my primary browser
+1 for Arc!
Firefox!
Until recently, chrome. Recently I started experimenting with Firefox and qutebrowser.
I used FF for a long time then chrome because of how much was deved for it. Now I’m trying to switch back to FF, but getting out of the chrome eco system is such a pain in the ass
Personally had an ok switch. My biggest issue was auto completions. Which was solved with Bitwarden.
I need to just bite the bullet and deal with the swap, as chrome has gotten worse and worse over the years
Firefox. Moved because of the Manifest V3 changes around November 2022
Firefox. With Tree Style Tabs and UI tweaks detailed here: https://programming.dev/comment/1906253

w3m on a vt terminal connected to a headless netbsd box.
Firefox, but I wanted to give a nerdier answer.
better yet - lynx on a tty terminal running on an LFS VM, with all the devices using hardware passthrough, and a gentoo host machine.
For reference, I am also using firefox
Ah, good ol’ C-x M-c M-w3m…
another one for Firefox. I use it on PC and Android too, tho it has some issues and bugs on mobile. But I don’t care.
