    Firefox because it’s one of the last browsers against the Chromium monopoly.

    Also UBlock Origin is wayy better on Firefox, even before Google forced their version of Manifest v3 on all Chromium based browsers.

      And on android, Firefox is the only browser that allows installing ublock-origin and user scripts

          Ah yes, I think I heard of it ages ago; though it’s based on chromium so add blocking may stop working in 6-12 months,

            No. It is already in effect for over half a year.

            It won’t compleatly stop working but it makes it way more useless

    Firefox, on my desktops and my phone. Several reasons:

    1. It’s relatively trustworthy.
    2. It uses the only non-WebKit-derived browser engine still in active development. Monoculture is bad.
    3. It supports uBlock Origin, and will continue to do so next year.

      Wait its going to be unsupported after?

        In Chromium and derived browsers, yes. It already doesn’t work in Safari and presumably other WebKit-derived browsers. Firefox will soon be the only browser capable of running a truly effective ad-blocking extension.

      DuckDuckGo is my default search engine now

      How is that working for you? I am thinking of switching in my quest to get out of google stuff

        I tried that for quite a while but ultimately gave up. For many (technical or non-English) topics, I found no fitting result of my search on the first page.

        Not op but I’m using DDG since many years and I feel like is continuously improving.

        In case you miss google or you need a different search you can simply add !g to the search and search on google from DDG (it opens a google page)

        Great, occasionally have to switch search engines to get certain kinds of results but that’s true with Google as well

    PC: Firefox (without the arkenson js yet) Android: Firefox too ^^

    I really like that Firefox is one of the rare breeds on the mobile scene which provides some browser extensions too.

      yo question ab firefox coming from dude who knows very little ab it, i watched a video browser tier list by eric murphy and he listed hardened firefox in S tier, do u reach hardened firefox by downloading configs for it off github? how reliable is it and do things tend to crash if u try to have many options at the same time (like an amalgamtion of stuff from different ppl in order to reached a specific desired outcome, in terms of options, security settings and look)?

      😂 I was on Firefox before Chrome, and happily switched once I learned how much faster Chrome was around 2008. Switched back to Firefox not long after they introduced container tabs and their android browser is so much nicer that now I can’t use chrome anymore.

    Firefox.

    I used Chrome for the longest time, but I started having a problem that I thought was Chrome related so I installed Firefox to see if it solved my issue. It didn´t, and I eventually discovered the actual issue of my problem, but I ended up liking Firefox too much and stayed.

    Firefox. after the manifestv2 deprecation was approaching for chome I packed up and switched to firefox. I rely on uBlock Origin too much to be lest stuck on a browser it doesn’t run on. also the pleasant surprise of full extension support on the nightly android version was a nice touch!
