What's your main browser? I like to use Pale Moon with a Netscape theme to browse old sites, Brave for more general stuff, and regular Firefox as a general alternative

>>8 I used to use pale moon as my main browser, but I didn't like that some sites were getting broken, and I wanted to have more modern extensions too, so I switched over to regular Firefox

Just Firefox, it's the best out of most popular options I think. >Pale Moon with a Netscape theme to browse old sites Couldn't you just use an actual old browser? I think most old sites should be able to be supported on it.

>>10 Yes most old browsers do support them but some that have been a bit more updated recently break sometimes I think it's just handy to have a new browser with an old theme with having less chance of something break

>>8 Chrome on desktop, Bromite on mobile phone I tried other browsers, but Chrome always gave me the best experience, in terms of performance and reliability Also, I have all the bookmarks and extensions linked to it already, so I don't see reasons to change

>>19 Never heard of Bromite before... for mobile, I use the DuckDuckGo browser. It's not the best I think, but it's OK. On Desktop, I just use Firefox.

>>19 >>20 If you like Bromite on Android you might like https://kiwibrowser.com/ even more, it's basically the same concept, chromium fork, but the killer feature is you can install desktop chromium extensions from the store or .crx like ublock, foxyproxy, and for webdevs it even has a full fledged browser inspector

I mostly use hardened Firefox, but I also tried Librewolf, K-meleon, NetSurf and Links. At the end of the day, I just use whatever works without being a complete dumpster fire of ads and privacy issues

switched from vivaldi to aero-themed waterfox, sometimes i will get a warning from sites to upgrade to a modern browser but it doesn't usually stop me from browsing. on a separate note, very sad that there are so few illustrations for most of the modern fox-browser offshoots

>>8 I use LibreWolf as my main browser. Helps with privacy while not busting everything. And Chrome for school or anything that requires me to login my Google account. >Pale Moon Pale Moon is a cool browser, and used it as my main for a time and still check what the dev is doing with it.

I normally use Vivaldi for personal stuff and Chrome for my school work. I'd love to use Fire/Waterfox, but some of the websites I use don't support those.

It's SUPER-SPYWARE. https://spyware.neocities.org/articles/chrome >Fire/Waterfox https://spyware.neocities.org/articles/firefox https://spyware.neocities.org/articles/waterfox_classic Both are bad for privacy, but at least you can mitigate the spying https://spyware.neocities.org/guides/firefox But if you don't want to go through the hassle of mitigating the spying, you can just use a Firefox fork that's better for privacy by default, like Librewolf or Mullvad Browser. >but some of the websites I use don't support those Wow, that's retarded. Those must probably be some shitty spyware websites with a gorillion JavaShits and whatnot, right? Well, those websites are not a reason not to use Firefox-based browsers, since you can use them for most websites, and then use Chrome-based browsers for those shitty few websites. Some decent Chrome forks that don't spy much on you much are Iridium and Ungoogled Chromium.

Brave is the best browser. Works perfectly, runs fast, and doesn't steal my data

>>140 It's better than Chrome and whatnot, but it's still not too good for privacy (https://spyware.neocities.org/articles/brave) and comes with a lot of bloat, including shady cryptoshit. Also, it's a fork of Chromium, so you're still contributing to Google's monopoly on web browsers. I rather recommend Librewolf (https://librewolf.net/), which is based on Firefox, but has huge privacy and security improvements.
