Brave is beautiful and I love it a lot! I used it as my main browser for a couple of years and still use it as an alt to firefox, which is now my main :))

I use ffox for syncing & the mobile experience while I continue to use Brave for the dedicated user profiles :D

Firefox for work related stuff. Safari for personal browsing/logging into services (run credentials through keychain).

As others have said, Firefox & Ublock for the win!

[–] grimer 2 points 2 years ago

Mostly Brave. I LOVE it's adblocking and overall privacy. I'd probably just use Safari if it blocked as well though.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I find myself using Brave for most things currently but I do still use Firefox. I usually end up switching my primary between the two every couple of months.

I use Safari for personal browsing and Chrome for work (internal corporate stuff)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

All Safari for me. Keeps iPhone, iPad and Mac experience the same and syncs everything perfectly.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Arc is wonderful once it 'clicks', but may feel slightly weird at first. I've been using it everyday since I got the invite (switched from FF).

Safari and Firefox. I use Brave on my iPad, but I'm trying to keep my Chromium based browsing down.

99% Brave 1% Safari for me. Mostly Brave for cross platform sync.

Brave with uBlock Origin, AdGuard AdBlocker and Bitwarden.

Safari most of the time. Occasionally Edge when I need to test things. It's pretty wild that I can run a Microsoft browser on macOS. Hasn't been that way since the 90s. :D

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The new Edge browser is a modified version of Chrome, so more Google than MS.

I used Microsoft Edge when I had a Mac.

I am heavily into the Apple ecosystem. My whole life is on Apple’s platform. So, I use Safari. I do though, have Arc, Vivaldi, Edge, and Chrome installed.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I'm using Safari
It looks good, feels fast (although I haven't done much comparison). But tab-groups connected to focus mode really seals the deal for me.
The one thing I do wish for is more extensions, but most of the key ones I need are fortunately available.

[–] RandomAndy 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Arc! No plans of going back!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I am also amazed by how often they release new features to Arc. I can really recommend to try it out.

[–] jacktherippah 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Currently alternating between LibreWolf and Brave. I tried Safari when I first got my Mac but it sucks.

[–] fernfrost 2 points 2 years ago

Safari for regular use and Brave for anonymous / testing stuff (science)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Firefox on MacOS. I really believe in Mozilla as a company. uBlock Origin is one of the better ad blockers you can find. Safari is a bit easier on battery life though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Currently using Vivaldi

[–] simplelifelfk 1 points 2 years ago
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

80% Firefox nightly 10% Chrome and 10% Ferdium

[–] MicroWave 1 points 2 years ago

Firefox as my main, Edge for shopping promo codes, and Safari for Apple Pay payments.

[–] Stylus2650 1 points 2 years ago

Mostly Brave for daily browsing. But for work, I use Microsoft Edge.

[–] kratoz29 1 points 2 years ago

I have an old Mac (RMBP 2014) and I really want to like Safari, but the fact that it feels slower than Chrome and that I don't have an iPhone anymore really makes it more difficult.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Firefox because of its wide variety of addons and cause I sync between a Windows PC

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Firefox but currently exploring Orion + Kagi search to see if I am going to switch. Heard about Kagi on kbin and it seems awesome so far.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I use Brave.

However, sometimes the privacy settings are so good that certain sites don't function as well, especially if there is a pop-up element on a site.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Firefox on Linux machines at home. Mostly Chrome for work on the MacBook because the employer uses Google for everything.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I use Firefox with uBlock Origin. Not as nice on the battery as Safari or Brave, but I've always liked and preferred Firefox.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Chrome for personal use, Brave for work. I used to use Firefox but I need tab groups and I'd prefer a native solution for that. Simple Tab Groups seems unstable.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Safari (with Wipr), and for work Firefox (with ublock origin) because of compartmentalization and because MS Teams works (in Safari you need to disable cross-site tracking which I don't want to).

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Firefox. I love it’s dev tools and Mozilla has the internets back.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Vivaldi for most things, hardened Firefox for private browsing, tor for sensitive searches

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Safari for anything personal (for easy sync with my other devices), and Edge for work stuff. Safari meets all my basic needs in a browser, and iCloud Keychain has been great.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Tried Arc for a while, really enjoyed it but right now I'm using Edge (just as a test of the MacOS version). Used Orion in the past and liked it but I'm waiting for some updates before I commit to it full time (extension API still being worked on, no auto updates for extensions, etc). I've basically used them all at one point or another.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Firefox. I'm trying out Arc Browser but it's been so sluggish.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Arc for me too (previously Firefox) - really been enjoying the experience
