I jump between Brave and Firefox. Brave blocks a lot ads. Firefox lets you export HTML from a web page, which I find useful.

I used Chromium for years, but keeping it updated was just too much hassle. I just go with Brave these days, on MacOS, Windows and on iOS.

Browsers have all become suspect in their increasing limited reults.

Time for Musk to start a browser

What is wrong with continuing with Brave?

I really like Librewolf. Secure and fast, it’s ready to use right out of the box.

I used SWIron(SRIron, Cannot remember which atm), which is a Fork of Chromium that removes all aspects of Tracking/Privacy that google had in there.

I use Brave except when the ad blocker cripples a site, then I go to Mozilla or Edge. I do not install Chrome.

I used to like Vivaldi, because it has a real menu bar despite its Chromium underpinnings, which I like more than the stupid hamburger.

I recently ran across Floorp, a Japanese entry into the browser field. It is mozilla-based.

https://floorp.app/en

I also like Vivaldi. It is chrome-based from a team who created the original Opera browser. I especially like its feature to show several web pages on the screen simultaneously. Windows and Linux versions.

It depends on what you want out of a browser. I typically have a ton of tabs open, so I use Arc. It keeps everything nice and organized for me and without hogging resources.

Firefox (since v0.8) and Vivaldi on my Windows PC and Linux. There is always a need for at least two when browsers sometimes bark about certain web pages. Safari on my iPhone and iPad.

I've tried Brave three times, and each time I got frustrated with its lack of customization, especially in comparison to Firefox.

Nothing personal, I just laugh every time I see posts like this. Everyone trying to gain some fictional level of privacy or something I guess. I use Safari on my Apple products and Chrome and Edge on my Windows products. They work, I have no unusual expectation Relief of privacy, I’m not doing anything illegal, or going anywhere that I would be embarrassed about, I’m happy. it is the same with search engines, they all end up doing the same thing and generally return the same results. I do not find any urgent. Need to search for something better. I know that anything I use is going to have some bias or filtering, I’ve just learned to ignore that and for what I want.

I like Brave for ad blocking. There are a couple of websites that I have to use Edge for in the store but at home it is Brave.

I use to love Dissenter by Gab, but it’s discontinued. Will try Brave as I believe it’s similar.

I’ve been giving MS Edge a chance. So far, not bad. I do like the vertical tabs and tab groups feature.
