If not chrome, what is a good browser to use nowadays? I like Firefox but the last year I keep bumping in to websites that don't work so we'll on Firefox. Mostly web apps. So then what is left?

Firefox has been fine. I've thought about switching to one of the cooler forks but I haven't gotten off my ass yet.

This is your push, DO IT!

Librewolf and Waterfox have been running just fine for me

[-] jtrek@startrek.website 1 points 6 days ago

Do you use either of them on android? The syncing between android and desktop is nice in vanilla Firefox

[-] Lumidaub@feddit.org 4 points 6 days ago

Waterfox syncs with no issues.

[-] Zidane@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 days ago

That's the one thing I'm still using stock Firefox with. I have a few hundred if not a thousand tabs open on mobile so haven't felt too strong an urge to switch just yet lol

Just use Zen Browser or LibreWolf and call it a day :D

I stay away from sites and services that don't work well on Firefox. Firefox complies with open web standards, if a site doesn't run well on Firefox it implies that the operator is doing something fucky that you'd probably not be OK with.

This. I've never run into problems on Firefox with even the most sketchy seeming domains.

Even ChatGPT and every anime piracy site I've visited runs fine. What's sketchier than those? lol

You can report sites that are broken on Firefox: https://webcompat.com/issues/new

Ever tried uploading an 8GB file to Copyparty on Firefox for Android? It just hangs (but so does the unofficial app). I needed to ask my sister to use Chrome :(
