I use Firefox on all platforms.

Firefox. I'm not happy with how Mozilla Corp is operating, but I'm not switching to a Firefox fork unless there's actual developer exodus (akin to what happened to OpenOffice/LibreOffice). Ultimately, at this stage, those forks depend on upstream Firefox developers for 99% of the work.

Second this because, they based in the EU and ain't adding AI. The only con is that it is not open source

LibreWolf is the only right answer.

Firefox, begrudgingly.

It's the best browser from a performance standpoint, and has the features i want, but it's still a bit of a resource hog. It's just that everything else is worse (slower, lacking essential features, or most often both).

Zen, at least until Ladybird is ready.

Firefox. It's fine. The ai stuff is concerning , but nothing's caused me enough pain to switch yet

[-] gwl 3 points 5 days ago

!waterfox@programming.dev is literally identical to Firefox, but the AI removed

Firefox, Firefox developer edition, Firefox focus, waterfox, Fennec, and Tor

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

I use many, usually Firefox.

[-] vortexal@sopuli.xyz 6 points 6 days ago

I mainly use Firefox as it's the best non-chromium browser I'm aware of for both Linux and android. But I also have Vivaldi installed on Linux for the rare cases where something doesn't work in Firefox, Waterfox on some of my older android devices because Firefox no longer supports the versions of android they run, and I also have F-Droid's Fennec on one of my phones because it used to be my primary browser on android and I just never got around to switching to Firefox on that phone.

For anyone wondering why I stopped using F-Droid's Fennec, it's just because at some point (possibly a few years ago) they announced that their browser was outdated and missing several security features from Firefox. It's possible that the browser is fully updated now, as it does seem to be receiving updates regularly, but I currently have no reason to switch back to using it as my primary browser on android. Now, if they were to revert the UI back to previous one, I'd have a reason to use it again. I really don't care for the UI both Firefox and Fennec have currently on android.

Waterfox and Zen. I switched to Waterfox a while ago and have had no problems with it. It's basically "Firefox minus AI," which is what I wanted it to be.

I started trying out Zen Browser a few days ago, too. It's another Firefox fork, but Zen is more willing to try new things with the UI. So far I like it.

So it's been Waterfox on Android and Zen on desktop lately. (Zen does not have an Android version.) They both support Firefox sync, and syncing works between the two of them. Pretty cool.

[-] Spaniard@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Firefox mainly and some forks (Floorp, Librefox, Fennex, Ironfox) also Vivaldi

[-] dennisnedry@feddit.nu 4 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Primary: Zen Browser.

Reserve: Edge

Zen was the beginning it was little odd but now I love it. Fast, feels great to use and no nonsense.

I can't use either Zen or Firefox at work so there I use Edge. Edge is also a nice browser, I really like the sidebar for mail and drop.

I use Librewolf almost always I try others just for comparison an fun, here are they:

  • Librewolf: I use it for its privacy defaults and because it comes with no bloat and no nonsense.

  • Konform Browser: A fork of Librewolf but based on Firefox ESR rather than the regular release and focusing in smaller settings improvements. I've talked to the developer and they are very nice and seem to fix issues rather quickly. By the looks of it I will be moving to this browser permantly.

  • Ungoogled Chromium: For testing webpages, like styles and stuff for my blog.

  • Glide Browser: Its basically the Vimium extension + BetterFox. It's stil in early developement and it looks promising. I prefer Librewolf settings better than Betterfox so this keeps me from using this one.

[-] mrmaplebar@fedia.io 5 points 6 days ago

Floorp, a Firefox fork. It's fine, just trying it out.

And Firefox on mobile.

[-] CrabAndBroom@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 days ago

I use Floorp too. It's a weird little browser but I like it

[-] ilickfrogs@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Firefox, librewolf and thorium if I absolutely must touch filthy chromium.

[-] moonshadow@slrpnk.net 2 points 5 days ago

Firefox tweaked to the point it'd really make more sense to start with waterfox/librewolf if I didn't already have the momentum. Vivaldi is slicker, but I think it's important to support an engine besides chromium

[-] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 5 days ago

Firefox on Android, iPad and PC.

[-] mlfh@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 6 days ago

Vanadium on secure mobile and Trivalent on secure desktop, and a mix of Fennec/Firefox and Chromium where required on casual mobile/desktop/htpc

[-] gwl 2 points 5 days ago

Waterfox desktop, Fennec mobile

[-] Nickelalloy@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Vivaldi, so far very happy with it!

[-] sveltecider@lemmy.ca 1 points 5 days ago

How is it in terms of privacy?

[-] Nickelalloy@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

I just had a quick search, I can be wrong so do not take these as facts but some parts seems to be open source and some UI parts closed, like many web browsers they get sone revenues from a start page but the owners seems very decent and advocates for internet privacy since the 1999.

Also they are based in EU which i trust way more than US servers.

[-] callistocodes 3 points 6 days ago

Firefox and emacs-w3m. I keep trying Nyxt but it hasn’t stuck yet.

Zen is my default browser, is what I use on my Desktop and my Steam deck. I also use Firefox on mobile, cause there isnt a Zen mobile.

I use Safari on my iPad with uBlock Origin lite to watch youtube.

If I need to use a chromium browser, I currently have Helium installed, but I will probably grab Vivaldi as a backup browser.

I dont really have any plans to change away from Zen and Firefox, works for everything that I need, and anything that doesnt I kinda just walk away from. I also love the Zen interface and workflow.
