    If I have to keep a chromium browser around, in addition to Firefox, I’d rather edge than mainline Chrome.

      For me i went with DuckDuckGo + Firefox

      95℅ of the time on Firefox and DDG is just for YouTube ( even in it’s current Beta state it can bypass YouTube’s anti adblocker )

      Edge is just too problematic, Microsoft opened up Dark patterns 1.0.1 and forked Chromium and voila >> NSA certified browser

      That’s a false dichotomy. There’s no shortage of Chromium browsers that are significantly better than both.

        Suggestions? Preferably for both Windows and Mac

          Not sure which ones are compatible with Mac. Brave is my choice but there’s also Vivaldi and several flavors of Opera.

          Arc is weird but pretty good once you get used to it.

          DuckDuckGo is good if you want a minimal browser and don’t really care about extensions

          Brave is OK if you want a slightly more private version of Chrome

          Honestly though, just use Firefox.

            You might be thinking of iOS browsers? Mac browsers use a variety of engines

        Brave seems like a superb option.

        Opera seems like a reasonable option, I guess, but I’m not sure if it has the market share to actually be seen and controversial if there was something to be controversial about.

      I’m not sure I would. Edge is trash, it keeps shoving the AI bullshit, all the MSN news stuff, ads for cheaper shopping, all in your face when you first start up. While you can turn it off, it gets annoying doing that every time you reinstall or spin up a new VM. Chrome, for all its faults, is a lot less annoying freshly installed.
