What web browser do you use regularly, cudie?

For me it's:
- Firefox is default for most WWW consuming needs
- Chromium is secondary, for mostly shitposting under VPN and checking web coding stuff
- Pale Moon exclusively for I2P, proxy is switched on there constantly

Related:
- Thunderbird for reading RSS and Atom feed

Use Firefox for pretty much anything over http.
I use Tor when browsing the d4rx\/\/3bZ and for google when searx isn't working.
I use firefox for I2P, would Pale moon, librewolf, or even the new mullvad browser be better?

I don't think so. I use Pale Moon for I2P simply because I don't want to bother myself with proxy switchers and PM anyway was a vacant browser on my system.

There's one certain thing is that Pale Moon works better for Gopher. Old Firefox plugin for direct Gopher access (OverbiteFF) works in PM note: imported locally, but not in the newer versions of Firefox.

At this point, firefox is, at best, controlled opposition to google. Their market share has been going down, executive salaries going up, and they keep adding spyware shit like pocket.

I use tor browser as much as possible, and ungoogled-chromium for clearweb. Qutebrowser is also pretty nice

>>3 idk I use netsurf for i2p.

Didn't know about this one. Looks legit.

brave because it's based on chrome and just twerks. also don't have to go through the hassle of installing ad blockers because it already has one built in.

I'm just used to Firefox. It has default features that I like, e.g., "reader view", screenshot tool, sane password manager.
>I use tor browser as much as possible
This is the way.

It's sad the Firefox is the only real competitor to chromium.
Although it comes with spyware and bloat out-of-box, you can remove most of it without having to hackerman into the code, which is unlike chromium.

Would be much sadder, if there are zero competitors to Chromium.

Mandated for what reason? I can't imagine any.

I'm using Firefox by SJWzilla. It has ads embedded. All the commonly used browsers are by corrupt companies and are horribly designed.

I just use the Mercury browser with a few add-ons.

But I use Bromite on android.

Firefox for almost everything, including development
Ungoogled Chromium for when I want to see how my css looks on it
W3m for when I'm bored or if I want to go through a site without loading js or media
Edge for when I'm on Windows and Firefox isn't already installed
Lagrange for the few instances I want to browse gemini

newsboat for youtube subscriptions, podcasts, and a few blogs
liferea and quiterss for feeds with media in them, and I can't make up my mind over which is better. quiterss doesn't segfault or run like shit, but liferea has search folders and script support

Chromium is so fast compared to Firefox. This website loads instantaneously in Chromium, while there's a minor lag in Firefox.

>noooooo im gonna stick to my muh trannyfox which is a jewgle partner anyway
Actually the only benefit of trannyfox is its FF account that synchronizes everything on the fly. Don't have to lose your tabs and passwords anymore.

Chromium doesn't do that, unfortunately. Unless you use jewgled Chrome, of course.
