Firefox on Mac, Win, Linux, and Android

Same, because it's a good browser and because of their commitment to an open internet.
I keep telemetry enabled (it can be perused openly on telemetry.mozilla.org if interested).
https://pulsebrowser.app its a minimalist Firefox fork with an extremely handy sidebar and sane defaults
Firefox, been using it on my PC as long as I've had one. Been forced to use Chrome, I.E & Edge on work computers and don't fancy them particularly.
LibreWolf
firefox on desktop, safari on mobile
Firefox. Developer edition, to be specific.
LibreWolf, which is a fork of Firefox focused on privacy
Firefox developer edition.
Switched to that because of chrome's manifest v3 announcement.
Firefox, but Vivaldi seems cool and I might start using it in on mobile.
Vivaldi on laptop, Orion on iPhone β but as of last week Orion is crashing multiple times a day (after months of use without issues).
Firefox + ublock
For work I use Safari, for fun I use Firefox, and for anything that demands I use Chrome I use Chrome.
Firefox.
I'm so happy to see that almost everyone here uses Firefox or a fork of it!
I moved to Firefox on desktop years ago.
On mobile I use Firefox as default, Cromite if something does not work on Firefox, Kiwi Browser as backup.
Firefox and Kiwi Browser on mobile is a bit sluggish and slow on my phone.
Librewolf. It is Firefox with private defaults.
Vivaldi. I use Firefox too, but I love the mouse gestures and other features.
Moved from Edge to Firefox and back to Edge a few days later. FF "works" but I prefer the less clicks requiring Edge UI. The faster bookmarking, the better vertical tabs (though you can kind of get it to work with verticalFox css). Edge loads faster and handling drag and drop of tabs and better website translation. FF also had performance issues on some websites. Another is, Edge bookmark icon remembers my click, while FF UI always resets.
I use a combination of desktop and android and FF android really isn't good with it's UI, it would require many more clicks to save 10 bookmarks inside my desktop folders and much longer to sync them. While on Edge it was two touch and instant sync.
I'd say FF is fine for 99% if the people but I was looking for something else. I did this just a few days ago.
You are literally the first person I have ever seen that prefers edge over any other browser. I knew there were some of you out there somewhere... Thanks for sharing your experience.
There are dozens of us!
Brave on my Windows desktop, and Arc for my MacOS laptop
Home pc: Vivaldi
Phone: Vivaldi
Work pc: Vivaldi + Firefox
Edit: i really liked the old Opera browser (12.16 and prior or whatever), and Vivaldi is the closest to that
I use orion on Mac and it works well 99% of the time.
Firefox running under native wayland for smooth scrolling and with apz.overscroll.enabled
set to true. The best experience on Linux.
When X breaks, i use Lynx.
Vivaldi. For me, in terms of usability, it's the closest thing to Opera (and by "Opera" I mean the browser that it was before moving to Blink/Chromium).
Arc + uBo Mac, Firefox + uBo mobile
Firefox for personal. I like Edge for work stuff.
Chrome on Mac.
Recently moved from Librewolf to Floorp (also based on Firefox). It is at least worth checking out Iβd say, especially if youβre on Vivaldi specifically because you canβt find something which competes in customisation, workspaces, and sidebars and all.
I want to use Firefox, but I'm too used to vertical tabs and the plugins available for Firefox aren't quite there yet, so Brave it is.
try the latest beta of sidebery. directly from the GitHub page.
Been using Brave for several years on all my devices, I might switch to a Firefox variant at some point tho.
Floorp. It's a Firefox fork with good privacy and security, but not as intrusive as Librewolf and doesn't break websites by default
Librewolf on desktop and Iceraven on mobile
