What's the best web browser and why?
>>57601213
Google Chrome/Chromium/Canary.
Because it just is, nothing can compete.
>inb4 poorfags with 1GB of RAM start complaining about it's RAM usage
Definitely not that hyped up pile of shit.
Chromium 4lyf.
>>57601232
>>57601226
Vivaldi is chromium.
Internet explorer bechause it's being made by the same guys that created windows 10, which is the best OS in the world.
>>57601252
edge is alright, minus the fact it's glorified spyware.
>>57601213
Firefox
It's free and isn't as much of a botnet the others
>>57601244
I know, but it's also somehow slower. Do not want. I had hoped they'd solve the performance problems once it left beta, but nope.
>>57601213
firefox/icewaesel
because muh fredoms
Opera, its pretty lightweight, it probably sends all my data to China, but i dont care what they say, they cant understand what im writing, chink chonk chee.
Chrome is the worse, the ram usage is disgusting
Firefox is the shit. I have used chromium, chrome and canary and they're not bad, but FF wins. Also the fact that you can use extensions with Firefox on mobile and you can't with Chrome makes it better.
>inb4 sjw cuck browser
Brave. Firefox is slow/unstable now and I feel like chrome is constantly recording everything I do.
>>57601213
There is no best. Just keep two or three to do different things. I've got Firefox for maximum ricing, security, and debloating surfing and shitposting. I also have Chromium with minimum security addons and some QoL stuff for porn diving. Then I've got Vivaldi as is for unadulterated surfing/testing.
I cant get rid of chrome. I try different browsers for several days but I always come back to chrome for its comfyness
>>57601545
it's basically firefox with ghostery, what's the point
>>57603865
more like chromium with ghostery
Chromium
fastest and best ui without unnecessary shit
>>57601213
You already posted it.
Not reliant on a thousand addons to be good, not botnet, actual customization options, and the best tab management system in the world.
palemoon
>>57604087
>anything based on fireshit engine
>good
>>57601213
Naked browser because it just works
>>57601213
surf, you can get it from suckless.org i dont know if you can run it properly in windows but it works great. Why? Because surf's source code is only 30kb and its based on webkitgtk and compiled binary is about 45kb. All bloatware is removed from surf. Thank me later.
>>57603865
It just werks
>>57601213
Opera.
Chrome without RAM hogging or botnet.
ff
>>57601276
>can't play webms
>good
>>57601213
Firefox because it has
>>57604058
>actual customization options
>>57601276
>edge is alright
spend some time on caniuse.com - there's a lot of new-ish web stuff that isn't support by edge by is supported by literally every other browser.
>>57601244
If they add a feature that lets me drag a tab out of one window and into its own, I'll use Vivaldi. Until then I'm sticking with Opera. The chinks can't hurt me.
>>57601392
hah, you sound like a poorfag with 1GB of RAM
>>57601213
Firefox. No other browser can rice like Firefox can rice.
Chrome
> but ram!?
You're poor
> but botnet!?
Nobody gives a shit about you or what hentai you watch
So I just downloaded palememe and it's way faster than regular firefox. I thought this browser was just a fucking meme. You guys lied to me.
>>57610275
It's just as fast as regular firefox for me.
>>57601226
>tfw the only thing keeping me on firefox is treestyle tabs
>>57610275
>>57610292
It's slower for me.
Safiri.
>inb4 muh webm
Who use them out of 4chan?
As of now, Opera. I was really hoping some other browser would step it up before it became China property.
Chrome
>Ram, no proper mouse/keyboard gestures
Firefox
>even worse than chrome, bloat city, pls use more extensions
Vivaldi
>slow as fuck, cant drag out seperate tabs
Pale moon
>stop
Edge
>webm, lack of gestures, somehow finds a way to be incompatible somewhere
>>57612388
you forgot brave
I'm using Yandex.
https://browser.yandex.com/desktop/
>>57609831
And you sound like a prick. For the record I've got 6GB, not that it makes any difference. Vivaldi is just shit now kys fag.
>>57601213
Brave is the fastest browser for me, but it has no ublock and reddit enhancement suite
>>57601226
>1 GB RAM
When do chrome use less than 1 Gb RAM? Minimum 4 Gb, sometimes 16...
>>57612428
Russian botnet.
firefox after deleting the profile folder every single day
>the fucked up slowdown library issue still isnt fixed
>>57610446
This, I need my tabs and session managers
>>57610446
>using tabs
>>57604213
Unfortunately true for many active Firefox forks using the current codebases.
>>57612670
So, wherever the browser is from, it's got a botnet from there. Sweet.
>>57613397
how so?
>>57601213
Chrome for ease of use and speed
Firefox for unmatched customization
Using any fork of these two is retarded
You posted it OP.
Vivaldi. Fucking best browser I ever used.
> Inb4 everyone tells me how shit they think it is when it doesn't really matter.
Firefox, since Chrome isn't any faster for me and has weird ram usage
I like muh rice
>>57613641
>using virusfox @ 2fps
i have 20 tabs open over 3 windows and chrome is using 1gb ram. sounds kinda reasonable considering i have 16gb ram anway
>>57614082
now leave them open for a few hours and see what happens
>>57614100
i left my computer on overnight
>>57613860
just enable this, son.
>>57606313
i ll totaly switch to edge if one day it will play webms
>>57609815
They have added that in the beta version at least. Honestly i just right click and select move tab to new window now since i have been using Vivaldi for so long.
>>57601213
GNU IceCat
https://www.gnu.org/software/gnuzilla/
prove me wrong
>>57601213
I used vivaldi, some update in performance went to shit (choppy video playback, speeddial being laggy as fuck) and I stopped using it. Has that been fixed yet?
>>57610262
There's no equivalent to open with on chrome so I won't switch
>>57612768
k-kawaii ;3
>>57615065
I'm using it and I have no issue. I WISH there was a way out of the brutalist w10 design horror.
made brave browser my default. its absolutely brilliant. just needs a few little fixes and touch ups. its absolutely better than chrome. firefox is so bad its not even worth mentioning.
Mobile:
Brave is the best for sure.
Desktop:
This is just my opinion, but Firefox. I feel like I will switch your Brave once it gets more development.
If you use something other than FF, you're literally a faggot.
>>57617569
>using FF
>not a faggot
>all these cucks recommending firefox
lmao

Firefox. Because of Tree Style Tabs.
Otherwise it is slow as shit - I would use chrome or some other derivative of it if they could bring me the same ui experience as firefox. But they can't.
>>57612884
I should do this. My firefox profile is over 6 years old.
>>57613123
where are you fucking from? fucking 1999? gtfo
>>57618576
thx for this m8 - too bad chrome is botnet but still, you can't argue with facts

/thread (palemoon still lacks updates and firefox compatibility desu)
>>57613592
why?
how do I make chrome less of a botnet? it's so fucking fast
>>57622769
Use un-googled chromium.
>>57621426
>Chromium
Its literally chrome without a pdf reader and flash. Ungoogleing it is redundant and just placebo.
>Palemoon
You summed it up yourself.
Google Chrome has awful font rendering
it's all blurry and shitty
>>57623273
Blame the material design update
>>57601213
why is it so hard to make flash working in vivaldi under linux?
Firefox, no botnet
>>57602398
try opera
>>57625163
This bugs me too.
I need an answer.
Firefox
>>57625374
The implementation of flash over Electron is buggy on Linux (and less buggy on Windows), so, all depends on the Github team
Firefox
I tried Palemoon, Waterfox, Icecat, Nightly, Brave and Opera. Still went back to the botnet because honestly they can't compare.
There are people who unironically use:
opera
chrome
chromium
any dumbass firefox variant
