@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox is my favorite when I can use it, but at least on my new Mac, I found Firefox was misbehaving for inexplicable reasons. Shrug, I don’t mind Safari that much, and for when AdGuard for Safari isn’t working, I also have AdGuard Home running on my home network.

- Safari
- Edge
- Brave
@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox for the gecko engine vs the overwhelming power (and use) of Chrome’s Blink.

I’m pretty sure this just reflects “people who know what a browser is”, or least “people who know enough about browsers to have an opinion”.
@jon@vivaldi.net Pale Moon. It’s single-process, so if something goes wrong, I can kill the browser simply. It supports the plugins and extensions I need, want, and use on a daily basis. It doesn’t support DRM, RTC, or the concepts pushed on us by DoubleClick. I’m very happy with the browser.
#Firefox because of Multi-Account Containers

Many, many comments here. :tony_laughing:So a lot of interest in this question.
No wonder really, here on ‘Mastodon’.Veery good. :tony_wee:
Maybe someone else is interested in digging through here. ;-) ;-)
I’m sure several people will take a closer look at the ‘Vivaldiserve’ afterwards.

@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox, because its the only real alternative to chrome and its clones, firefox its still the most customizable browser, vivaldi its the second, but the biggest con of vivaldi feels that its the slower among chrome clones
@jon@vivaldi.net LibreWolf for privacy &
Vivaldi for functionality@jon@vivaldi.net Edge because it’s the only one on the market that has an option to:
- Ask if you want to open or save the download
- If the user wants to open it without saving, it saves it in a temporary directory
- Automatically deletes that downloaded file when closing the browser
I like to keep my downloads folder clean, sorry 😢

Because ‘Vivaldi’ is simply the world’s best browser for me.Especially on ‘Linux’.
And has been for a long time.I think it’s also worth taking a closer look at the ‘Vivaldiserve’ behind it. ;-)
Currently Firefox in first place, then Safari just ahead of Vivaldi here. :tony_unhappy:
I think many people here have simply not yet looked at Vivaldi for all platforms.
Based on ‘Chromium’, 100% open source.:tony_happy: :tony_smiling: :tony_wee:
@jon@vivaldi.net Zen Browser @zenbrowser@fosstodon.org
@jon@vivaldi.net Arc, with spaces, profiles, boosts, and really considered design decisions, it works really well for what I do.
