I’d say Firefox and its forks (e.g. Librewolf) are the only good options. Almost everything else is Chromium based (including Opera, Edge, Vivaldi, Falkon, etc.), so you’ll get the same performance, and Chromium is developed by Google, so they can do whatever they want with it. One of the consequences will be heavily reduced effectiveness of adblockers due to Google recently changing the way extensions work. Google does this kind of thing constantly. They change whatever they want and disregard the community’s opinion, so I’d say you should probably use a Firefox-based browser.

Firefox for privacy, performance, etc.

Honestly web 1.0 browsers are a meme at this point. You can’t do most things online with them as most websites require some amount of javascript among other modern standards and protocols. Forget looking at your web emails, forget reading the capitalist propaganda ‘news’, forget using social media, forget shopping, forget looking up recipes, forget anything that isn’t an unmaintained angelfire blog rotting in obscurity without updates since 2012. Oh and enjoy lots of being blocked by Google captchas for security since you look like a bot and without JS support you can’t solve such things.

At this point on desktop as far as engines (what really tends to matter and what’s under the hood) there’s either Blink based (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Chromium Browser, etc) or Gecko (Firefox and derivatives) plus Webkit if you’re on a Mac or iDevice I suppose. Everything else is dead or so far behind standards implementation or timely security support as to be unusable, unsafe, or both.

Not too much choices on desktop… so firefox I spose. On android, naked browser pro is really tiny, like 150 kb.

Okay, I can already tell that Opera is good.

Modern web is bloated, any browser is gonna consume a lot of resources.

I’d go for firefox with modified security settings or just librewolf.

Any other browsers I should have or try out?
