What web browser are you using?

[HiMrRes23948]

I am using Firefox ESR as my main web browser

please post it here

I like opera!

Chrome. I've used it for 8+ years now and I'm too lazy to switch to anything else.

Firefox. Only because of the plugins. Now if they could quit breaking most of them every so many updates, as that's really the biggest reason to use their browser in my opinion.... 

[SorryBella]

Chromium based browser, currently on MS Edge, mainly because Firefox doesnt support high framerate exploit on Twitch. If someone can point me to an onion browser thats not either so stripped out of their mind in plugin support or the size of a car in installation, that would be great.

I bought into the OperaGX marketing. I do like that I can throttle it here at work. An i7-7500 with 8gb ram office computer only goes so far when you have a "effing off browser", a work browser with ordering system, Java program that handles the outside warehouse inventory, Outlook, Teams, and a massive 5900 line item excel sheet with my underground inventory open at once.

my main browser is (still) google chrome, but for some things (price comparisons mostly, stuff where i have 100 tabs open for weeks on end) i'm very happy to have vivaldi.

 

next cycle of reinstalling my computer vivaldi is probably gonna become the main browser.

beyond that, some nuance:

i have a divine hatred for "my browser is better than your browser" garbage. at work i largely use edge, because it is the 'default i'm not choosing color' option, and there's always that one arsehole at the office that's on a holy mission to convert everyone to firefox. (i'm sorry firefox people.. but it's always firefox...)

besides that, the marketing around script, tracker, and ad blocking being built into browsers absolutely infuriates me, because it scares "not technically capable enough to understand" customers into using it and no longer daring to turn it off when their webpage breaks, because as it turns out banking websites get SUPER defensive when they notice something is fiddling with the page's contents.

 

as for why vivaldi? it's chromium, with all the crap you need, and none of the crap you dont. it even supports loading plugins from the chrome web store as if you're on chrome, because under the sleek design it's just chromium. i have a noscript plugin with 90% of the internet whitelisted, and i can report that 200 webpages are eating approximately 700MB RAM and basicly idle CPU usage on 4 cores.
