Qutebrowser and Firefox
On desktop, Librewolf (Firefox) and Brave. Sometimes I need a Chromoum browser (thanks Google), and Brave is one of the better options.
On iOS, it doesnβt really matter. Though, I went with Brave. Ad blocking and background media playback is great.
On Android I use Mull, which is a hardened Firefox, with goals similar to Librewolf. Again, Brave as a backup.
Mac - Opera main, Safari secondary, + Brave for free YouTube.
Opera
Brave on both.
- Native vertical tabs +1
- tablet UIs
- scrolling velocity doesn't feel non-native
Would like to revisit Firefox once those are fixed.
vertical tabs are managed by extensions. i used tree style tab, now i'm using sidebery.
if you want to use sidebery, use the beta from the GitHub page. they completely rewrote the extension between v4 and v5

At home, Firefox. At work: Chrome because I'm a web developer and our app is currently broken in Firefox
Brave. It got better privacy ratings than Firefox and I really like the design.

Arc!
Desktop:
Mullvad browser as daily driver (Firefox + Arkenfox + Tor Browser + ublock origin out of the box)
Degoogled chromium for any logged in accounts, each in its own profile (I prefer the chrome profile switcher)
Tor Browser for any onion sites
Mobile:
Mull (Firefox)
Librefox (a Firefox fork) or if I really just don't want to use that for sites like fandom, I can always rely on the text based Links browser to save the day.
I usually stick to the browser that comes bundled with the OS. On my computer, I use Microsoft Edge, and on my phone I use Chrome. I'm just very lazy to download a different browser, I'm not biased at all. If I start using Linux, I'll be using Firefox (idk if different Linux distros bundle different browsers). If I ever switch to iOS or macOS, I'd use Safari.
I think I'm automatically being hated now for using a browser made by a company that sells my data to advertisers.
Iβm 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 Appleβs 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, Googleβs video chat)
Edge for free access to GPT 4.
Chromium on mac.
Edge. I hardly use my PC for any actual browsing other than torrent sites.
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).
Edge and Chrome
Mullvad and Brave on desktop. Vanadium and Cromite/Brave on Android.
