I don't know why, but even on my machine which gets 40-60 FPS in FFXIV while simultaneously encoding a movie, Firefox was always slower than chromium browsers.

I truly don't understand it.

Honest question. What's wrong with chromium? I understand why google/ms and other corpo flavours are bad, but why is base chromium bad

Mostly having the centralized backbone of chromium makes people uncomfortable since it can do a lot from behind the scenes if it wanted to. But the raw base form is pretty much fine AFAIK, it's just very rare among browsers to do so.

Firefox is indeed amazing but since chrome is so widespread a lot of sites primarily focus on supporting that - and thus i cant always use firefox. its a bit annoying

Arc and Orion are the best browsers I’ve used. GNOME Web looks nice, too.

Multi-Account Container with proxy support is a killer feature for me. I keep Brave as fallback just in case for PWAs.

I really wish firefox had HDR support. That’s the only reason I haven’t fully switched

Wake up, they made based into a post.

Another alternative: GNOME Web (a.k.a. Epiphany), which is based on the WebKit browser engine.
