off-topic What internet browsers do you like to use?

[Cpvr]

There are a few different internet browsers available to use these days, but which ones do you like to use?

Personally, I like to use Safari and Google Chrome on my iPhone.

What about you? Do you have a particular browser that you use the most?

I use Chrome on both my PC and Samsung Galaxy.

It just makes things more simple as they're both so much similar in every way.

I've rarely used another browser, but when I have, it was Edge. And trust me, that was not by choice. Microsoft wanted to be cute and open a webpage or two in there for me.

I’ve never used Edge. Is it as bad as Internet explorer was?

Somehow, Microsoft managed to make a worse product than Internet Explorer.

However, that doesn't say much with their history of Windows releases, the latest flop of Windows 11. I am still on Windows 10 and will gladly pay for support at the end of life, if they will still support it for a fee.

Damn! That’s sad lmao. You would think they’d learn after their first browser was a total bust. I guess they were only good at making operating systems and computers.

I use the Brave browser. It blocks most the ads on movie streaming sites.

I use the Brave browser. It blocks most the ads on movie streaming sites.

I've heard of Brave before, but never installed it to see how it is.

I have YouTube Premium, so I'm not subjected to many ads.

The only ads I hate seeing are the huge ads that pop up over an entire website after being on the site for 2-3 seconds while on a desktop computer. I'm just about ready to click on what I came for, and wham! it pops up right in front of my cursor so there's an accidental ad click or a pause to close it out. It's the worst Google ad type, ever.

Other annoying ads are the grid of 4-8 ads in between articles on news sites and then 4-8 more before the comments.

Between those two ad displays, those are the only ones that annoy me as they interrupt my browsing experience. It's not too much for me to port over to a completely new browser though.

I use AdBlock on my phone, but I still see some ads on certain websites, especially if I use a free streaming site. Generally, about 95% of the ads are blocked. I use AdBlock Plus. For some reason, I see ads on Google Chrome but not on Safari.

Brave Browser is more than enough for me to do everything I want to do online. I used to work with chrome but discovered that Brave was way better in terms of security and privacy, it's why I started using it.

 

[ActionAce]

I also acknowledge that Safari and Chrome are top notch but I use Firefox on my desktop because it makes customization very easy. On mobile, I switch between Chrome and Brave. I used bravery because of its rewards but unfortunately, the reward program has been disabled in my region.

If I want to maintain privacy, I might have to consider using Tor Browser for its anonymity and security features. Aside that, I use chrome entirely. It offers unique customization options which resonated with me.

 

[Immortal]

I like Firefox, I use it in my computer as well as hand held devices. When I want to get ad free browsing experience, I like to use Brave, both on my computer as well as hand held devices. I sometimes use chrome.

 

[MidnightMuse]

Name it, and I have used it. However, I have settled on Brave for typical browsing and work, and Firefox developer for web development tasks.

Opera is also a top contender, but it does not play well with Linux, especially who it comes to playing video and some media formats.

 

[Shawn]

I've used Chrome for years.

Tried to be a Firefox user for a long time but always had errors with it.

I use whatever browser is default on mt iPhone.

 

[Alamson]

I use chrome on all my devices. Infact all my passwords are saved and I can access on any device once I logged in to my profile on chrome. I only use Edge when I need to view multiple pages at once.

Been trying to get into using Tor, but it has always been too slow for my needs. So, it is not a viable option for me.

 

[Heatman]

Google chrome have always been my favourite browser. It's what I make use of on my smartphone and laptop. I've been introduced to Aloha which looks good. I'm just keeping it as a back up.

 

[Augusta]

I use Opera mini all the time as it is always easy to use and I navigate easily with it on sites

 

[Trush Jodie]

I use Opera browser. The navigation is seamless for me. I even have moved to the Beta version of it. I also have chrome on all my devices. But I don't use chrome as much as Opera.
