What Is Your Preferred Web Browser?

I tried them all but at the end, it is always with Firefox that I have the least disappointment overall (even if some things still bother me), concerning the balance between features, freedom, compatibility, ease of use, addons, website rendering, customization of the interface and functions...
As for chromium & co, I have always seen things that are not very clear, such as parameters that are not taken into account, forced or not practicable.
To sum up, I have more trust in Firefox

Justin Do the Firefox users just use it because it's the default or because they like it more?

I use it because it's the only way to get Flash working.

kyrios Firefox engine is currently the only viable alternative to the webkit/blink monopoly

Didn't Mozilla announce that Firefox was going to switch to a webkit engine..? Or was it only on mobiles..?

Is there any web browser other than Gnome Web that makes use of headerbar? I really liked the integration with Gtk+ themes that Gnome Web has but it has ugly support for youtube.

raenii It has a headerbar which looked neat. It's a shame that it doesn't work well with youtube.

Anybody tried using Basilisk browser from the Palemoon people?

Also, what do you think the likelihood of Microsoft's Edge browser ( new one based on chromium) being ported over to Linux?

@Justin Honestly I use it cause I think tons of these browsers are just reinventing the wheel. Vivaldi seems really cool to tinker with but FF gets my work done, is customizable enough, and has the extensions I want (uMatrix, privacy badger etc.) It's also nice to be settled into a relatively stable and long standing piece of software and Firefox provides all that while being OSS.

eljondy I've never even heard of brave before now. Will check it out. Thanks!

Firefox, it looks great without title bar.
Solus is actually the first distro that I used where 144Hz truly works without annoying micro stutters.

My tweaks:
mousewheel.default.delta_multiplier_ ;200
layout.frame_rate;144
layers.offmainthreadcomposition.frame-rate;144
layers.acceleration.force-enabled;true

I have to add that FIREFOX means in my case only in private mode and a lot of the features on offer turned off.
I also kick out most of the default search engines, I only keep Startpage.com and, in case needed, Google and DuckDuckGo.

Wouldn't touch anything googleistic like Chrome with a pair of tweezers!!

I use it because it's reliable, well supported, I can customize it to a great extent and there are a lot of add-ons (which I don't need).
It gets the job done and is quick.
Mind you, I have a powerful Thinkpad W530 helping me along the way.

elfprince since I started using brave I didn't look back, browsing is so smooth because it blocks all the crap out with the built in shield

Well, thanks for the tip:
I tried to install BRAVE but couldn't.
It looked as if it got installed (in the Software Center) but it didn't show in the list of apps.
I couldn't run it from the terminal either.

Any idea what might have happened?

Have you tried log out/in, or restart your computer?
