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

Hope to use @servo someday 🤞

@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.

@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 Firefox, largely because I like supporting an alternative (non-Blink) rendering engine - I think a rendering engine monoculture is very dangerous for the internet as a whole.

@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
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 Firefox since forever, but with a 2-3 year spell with Opera around 2005 (when Firefox was indescribably slow and unusable). Now just inertia keeping me there. And the feeling that it’s the last hold-out of non-Chromium based browsers. And more recently, continued Manifest v2 support.

#Firefox got a ton of variants/forks recently.

• #Librewolf
• #MullvadBrowser
• #ZenBrowser
• #Midori

So yeah I take Firefox + Arkenfox user.js or Librewolf if they fixed their CI/CD

@jon@vivaldi.net I’m currently trying Zen, which is FF inside and Arc outside, basically.
Re: why, I think Chrome is the new IE6, and we need more engines to keep the web open

@jon

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 Different Browsers for different situations

• Safari
• Edge
• Brave

@jon@vivaldi.net Firefox is my favorite when I can use it, but at least on my new Mac, I found Firefox was misbehaving for inexplicable reasons. Shrug, I don’t mind Safari that much, and for when AdGuard for Safari isn’t working, I also have AdGuard Home running on my home network.

@jon@vivaldi.net Brave

@jon@vivaldi.net I started to really like ARC until recently when I heard they are focusing on a new project. Then I would say Firefox and Safari
