Does Firefox break for people? I’ve used it solidly for years without a reinstall.
Same here, but I imagine there are vastly different usage pattens. Maybe Firefox doesn’t support some that well. I couldn’t use any other browser though.
WebKit is cross platform, The only reason those browsers are platform-locked is because the devs wanted them to be.
Idk how you use Firefox wrong but anon here is doing it. Got mine loaded with add-ons n shit never had an issue in years. Imagine actually using brave.
The problem is chromium dominance (edge and chrome mostly) as it makes other browsers vulnerable to the noncompetitive web standard changes that google likes.
Anon works in Brave’s marketing department
I don’t know what they mean about firefox breaking, unless they are on the nightly stream. I don’t recommend being on nightlies if stability is important to you.
I have been using Nightly on Android and Windows for years now and even that doesn’t break. I probably had minor bugs from time to time but so few I don’t even remember any specifically. But I do agree with you of course. On my work laptop I also use stable, just in case.
Imagine still using Brave in current year.
Show me another browser that can fully pass the EFF’s and other privacy tests, and I will switch.
Never heard of that before so just tried it with Fennec (Firefox fork) and got this result:
Then downloaded Brave and got this result:
This is what I get on a degoogled Android 13 custom ROM. What OS/device are you using? Did you opt out of sending stats to Brave when you installed?
I’m on the latest GrapheneOS (sounds like you are too) and yes I opted out of both checkboxes.
No one has mentioned Vivaldi yet. I haven’t found it slow in the years I’ve used it. It does hog memory with the amount of tabs I open, but no more than any other browser I’ve used. Fortunately it has inactive tab suspenders as an option to help with my bad habits (natively now, and through chrome extensions before that). Also, it is undoubtedly the most visually customizable browser I know, so it being ugly is really you making the sandwich.
If this was just bait, I guess it got me. If not, anon could try Tor if they value privacy, or maybe something minimalist if they really care about performance.
Vivaldi has some closed source components to it, so that makes it a “pass” for a lot of us that are more privacy focused. But in performance and features Vivaldi is certainly a good chromium based browser - it’s just not one I choose for myself.
Anon’s baiting the audience of browsers I’ve not even heard of. I’ve googled SigmaOS and still unsure wtf is that, some coupling of productivity app and a browser that paints itself as the whole OS for all working needs, with one window\tab and a $10 subscription, exclusive to Macs, and is unironically called Sigma? I mean, it sounds even more niche than our favorite Firefox forks, folks. I’d not bite, but it was a pretty interesting dive. Thanks, anon.
