    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.

      And on android, Firefox is the only browser that allows installing ublock-origin and user scripts

    Firefox, because a) open source, b) ad blocking, and c) fuck Google and other corporate overlords.

      😂 I was on Firefox before Chrome, and happily switched once I learned how much faster Chrome was around 2008. Switched back to Firefox not long after they introduced container tabs and their android browser is so much nicer that now I can’t use chrome anymore.

    Firefox.

    I used Chrome for the longest time, but I started having a problem that I thought was Chrome related so I installed Firefox to see if it solved my issue. It didn´t, and I eventually discovered the actual issue of my problem, but I ended up liking Firefox too much and stayed.

    Firefox and sync my mountain of addons between all the machines I have it on. Fennec on android.

    Firefox is my browser for life, but I use a lot of them depending on the context. Chromium has very good dev tools that I need for my work. Safari has good battery performance on macOS laptops. Arc has some nifty new ideas.

    PC: Firefox (without the arkenson js yet) Android: Firefox too ^^

    I really like that Firefox is one of the rare breeds on the mobile scene which provides some browser extensions too.

    PC: qutebrowser (nice, quick, ad-block 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)

      That’s a name I haven’t heard in a looong time. I mostly browse from my phone / tablet nowadays, but qutebrowser is such a good vim-like browser experience.

      DuckDuckGo is my default search engine now

      How is that working for you? I am thinking of switching in my quest to get out of google stuff

        Great, occasionally have to switch search engines to get certain kinds of results but that’s true with Google as well

    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 :)

    Firefox most of the time, replaced by Chrome on one of my configurations, where Firefox would lead to graphic card freezes from time to time. Edge for Teams at work. Opera once in a while because I am nostalgic of the fantastic Opera mini browser on early versions of Android.

    Also, Firefox on Android or Fennec on phones without Google Play.

      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
