Obviously everyone has their favorite and browser discussions inevitably turn into flamewars, but TFA is true: at least don't choose Opera. That's really sad considering its history.
My favorite is currently Brave, once I turn off the cryptocurrency stuff. I used to prefer Firefox, but it isn't stable for me under significant load; perhaps leaky JS in one of my hundred(s) of open tabs makes things slow to a crawl. I wish that vanilla de-googled chromium like ungoogled or similar would adopt the same upgraded sync functionality that's built into Brave, but for now Brave works fine and I can use all my regular open-source Chrome plugins.
- timeon 3y agoIf you really need Chromium why not Vivaldi? No need to turn off 'cryptocurrency stuff' there.
- sharps1 3y agoTried Vivaldi multiple times. Does not stick. Some of the issues I saw are If you use multiple profiles at the same time there is no way to distinguish them on the task bar. I also couldn’t find a tab handling method I like. They also don’t seem to release on a regular cadence which makes me wonder how they are doing security updates. Their UI is not open source.
