Apple

Safari

Safari for anything personal (for easy sync with my other devices), and Edge for work stuff. Safari meets all my basic needs in a browser, and iCloud Keychain has been great.

Brave and Safari

I used to be a Firefox fanboy. But they don't care for resources and just eat ram and cpu for lunch. So, it is not usable for me, unless I close all tabs all the time - which I don't like.

Safari (with Wipr), and for work Firefox (with ublock origin) because of compartmentalization and because MS Teams works (in Safari you need to disable cross-site tracking which I don't want to).

Firefox on MacOS. I really believe in Mozilla as a company. uBlock Origin is one of the better ad blockers you can find. Safari is a bit easier on battery life though.

Firefox and sometimes Safari. Since I also have a Windows machine I like to use the same browser on both devices. And I don‘t like giving more data to Google by using Chrome. They know enough about me already

Firefox because of its wide variety of addons and cause I sync between a Windows PC

Tried Arc for a while, really enjoyed it but right now I'm using Edge (just as a test of the MacOS version). Used Orion in the past and liked it but I'm waiting for some updates before I commit to it full time (extension API still being worked on, no auto updates for extensions, etc). I've basically used them all at one point or another.

Safari — mostly for the password manager, sms short codes auto entry, and privacy oriented features

Currently using Vivaldi

Firefox, although also looking for a very lightweight privacy friendly browser.

Brave for web browsing, Safari for video streaming. As far as I know, Edge on Windows and Safari on Mac will stream in the best quality possible due to DRM/codecs. Supposedly Safari uses less battery streaming video on Mac too.

I use Arc for the majority of my online life but Chrome for my Genealogy because the BrainTool extension only behaves as I would like in Chrome and it is a fantastic extension for managing all the elements of my research.

Firefox but currently exploring Orion + Kagi search to see if I am going to switch. Heard about Kagi on kbin and it seems awesome so far.

I use Microsoft Edge, Firefox and Safari. I like using a browser that is very similar to Chrome, but I rather avoid Chrome. Edge was also forced for using Bing chat for some time. Safari is fine, but you can't use all the plugins that are available for other browsers, and that is a bit annoying.

I used Firefox a lot before, but some websites that I used had some annoying bugs. I'm also a bit more used to the dev tools of Edge. Of course, I test websites that I build on all 3 browsers, and often have more than one open at the same time.

@rebiots Firefox for Mac, Safari for iOS.

@rebiots was on chrome for a bit but went back to Safari for the ecosystem features but leaning towards doing a Safari/Firefox split

I use Firefox with uBlock Origin. Not as nice on the battery as Safari or Brave, but I've always liked and preferred Firefox.

Safari and Edge. I need to use Edge because I have several non-Apple devices so synchronisation presents a problem.

Chrome for personal use, Brave for work. I used to use Firefox but I need tab groups and I'd prefer a native solution for that. Simple Tab Groups seems unstable.

Firefox and Tor browser.

Firefox on Linux machines at home. Mostly Chrome for work on the MacBook because the employer uses Google for everything.

I was reading comments in this thread about Arc, and I was intrigued and watched a youtube video about it. The thing I don't understand (and I haven't tried Arc yet) is how are the Arc tabs different than just leaving the tab groups expanded on the left in Safari? The UI looks almost identical. Is there a usage model that I've missed?

DuckDuckGo for Mac.

Vivaldi for most things, hardened Firefox for private browsing, tor for sensitive searches

I use Brave.

However, sometimes the privacy settings are so good that certain sites don't function as well, especially if there is a pop-up element on a site.

Firefox, or Brave when things don't work on Firefox. Arc looks interesting from this thread and I've requested an invite. I keep an eye on Safari, especially new privacy features regularly being added and supported by Apple - though I'm aware of their privacy policy generally means they protect your privacy from everyone except Apple.

Arc! By far the best browser I’ve used on ANY platform.

I try to use Firefox as much as I can since it's the last rendering engine that isn't owned by Apple or Google.

If Firefox doesn't work I've found Vivaldi to be a nice alternative to Chrome/Edge/Brave.
