Floorp. It's a Firefox fork with good privacy and security, but not as intrusive as Librewolf and doesn't break websites by default
Orion (when it works 99% of the time) on my Mac. It’s pretty much all the benefits of Safari plus the ability to run some Firefox/Chrome extensions. I know it’s not FOSS yet, but they at least claim to be working on it. Firefox for the other websites that don’t work on Orion (very rare), and Chrome for the others that don’t work well at all on Orion/Firefox (almost never). I’m planning on deleting Chrome overall soon.
Chromium on mac.
Want to get into Nyxt. Hackable in common lisp! But for me on Guix it crashes within 5 minutes of use. Damn I need to fix it.
eww. (built into emacs). Used to google issues during terminal distro installations. Also good for simple blogs and github readme's, but I plan to replace that with a feed reader and a proper forge explorer package.
But as a depressed gamer, I've been sticking to firefox so far.
Firefox on pc librewolf on mac
Firefox and Vivaldi.
Qutebrowser and Firefox
Keep going back to Chrome, but back on Firefox. The problem is all the webpages Firefox tends to break unfortunately :(
i use ff for most stuff. if a site breaks and i really want to open it, i spin up chrome and open the site there.
That's what I'm trying to avoid though. Firefox is slightly slower, and I don't want to keep both browsers installed
why not?
if a site does not work on ff there is a site you can report it too.
also, i have ff with ublock and other stuff that edit the web page, some web pages do not like it, so i fall back to chrome.
my chrome is stock, no extensions, no account, no sync. i only open it for very specific purposes.
But.. I guess the real consideration, is why?
The reality is, the Mozilla CEO gets paid $5million a year. Although, I do respect that she was apparently there since the beginning
What benefit do I get for bug testing their browser? Why wouldn't I just use Chrome (which is also mostly open source anyway), which is fully compatible, and is still faster, and doesn't require me to submit sites on a regular basis?
They do have some interesting ideas, but a $3-$5mil salary for the CEO I feel could hire a lot of developers.
On the privacy front, don't forget that they are paid 500million by Google anyway, for google to be the default browser (same as they do with Apple). So, they have incentive not to step on Googles feet.
I’m on MacOS, and I tend to mostly use 3 for different reasons.
Safari has been my goto for battery, but Firefox has caught up. I may hop over in MacOS 14. My big sticking point has been integration with Apple’s keychain software, and that should change during the next major OS update.
Chrome for stupid g suite products that disable features for other browsers (aka, Google’s video chat)
Edge for free access to GPT 4.
Safari for daily driver. Firefox for backup. Mullvad for the old site.
Chrome for development (because our customers use that) and Safari for iOS/Firefox for personal usage
Edge
Brave on laptop and on phone. I tried to switch to Firefox recently but too many little things bugged me. I still have Firefox on my phone for when something doesn't work in Brave (like free movies on Southwest flights).
