Upgrade to Brave.

I had issues with the lack of *sufficient* scripting control with Brave when I tried it last year. Also, annoyed I can't tweak it like with Firefox (pre-Quantum) and Opera.

I like Opera a lot, but since it is now owned by a Chinese company I don't use it to log into any financial or other critical accounts.

Windows 10 FORCED me to go to Linux. Now I’m free.

Once I can no longer get security updates for my Win7Pro PC and laptop, I'll likely head in that direction.

Yes, the new NoScript for Firefox is nice, and I miss that on Brave. But Firefox has gotten so bloated and slow (I’m on 58.0.2) and it seems like you have to put up with an update a day, I’ve generally switched to Brave. I also have IE, old Seamonkey, and Chrome on the machine for specific uses.

When I used to travel a lot, I’d boot Puppy Linux from a DVD while on the road. Now I just use my Kindle Fire while on rare trips.
