    @jon@vivaldi.net Firefox, despite Mozilla’s current trajectory because the Chromium monopoly will ultimately harm the web.

    Hope to use @servo@floss.social someday 🤞

    Firefox because it isn’t chromium, and I just like it. With chromium, google controls the web. Doesn’t matter what kind of wrapper a third party puts on it. It’s still chromium and it’s still google.

    @jon@vivaldi.net I like Zen browser because it comes with vertical tabs, screenshot feature, and familiar dev tools.

    Moreover, unlike Safari, it works well on macOS and Slack notification. When I checked my Slack tab on Safari, I usually found that it didn’t load the page yet although I didn’t shutdown or restart the computer.

    @jon@vivaldi.net I would love to use Vivaldi, but unfortunately the Ad-Blocker on Android isn’t very good - Firefox using ublock-extension or Brave is doing a much better job there.

    @jon@vivaldi.net I would love to support Vivaldi more than I do but I worry about the Chromium base and also Firefox has its own plugin ecosystem.

    Just wish Google was not used in vivaldi , so when I don’t want their influence I use ddg . if there is a way to keep Google completely out of Vivaldi. I’d like to know how.
    Thanks MTT

        @jon@vivaldi.net It IS pretty good, sure. At the very least it doesn’t randomly block my own collabora server unlike uBlock Origin.

        But ultimately it’s just not good enough. So the day I can’t run uBlock Origin, my browsing experience will be immediately horrible

        This is VERY MUCH a deal breaker. Overnight the browser will become essentially unusable. And I know because I use the mobile version already where I can’t install an adblocker and… yeah, it sucks

    @jon@vivaldi.net I’ve been using Vivaldi lately, but I also like Firefox and Librewolf. However the internet today feels like that of 2000, so many websites only work with todays IE (Chrome), so yeah, the options are either Chromium or Gecko; and the latter doesn’t work for all websites.

    It’s a very sad state of affairs.

    @jon@vivaldi.net After dropping Opera, I now mostly use Waterfox. Vivaldi is also on my desktop and laptop. But so is Brave, Firefox and DuckDuckGO. Edge is also on there, but only because MS won’t allow me to remove it :(

    @jon@vivaldi.net Firefox, because its the only real alternative to chrome and its clones, firefox its still the most customizable browser, vivaldi its the second, but the biggest con of vivaldi feels that its the slower among chrome clones
