Why do mobile browsers all suck?

All of these are either bloated and slow, botnet, or literally who probable botnets, Lightning and all of it's forks are dead and in bad need of updates (inb4 do it urself :^)). What the fuck do I use?

I don't know lad, Google Chrome works perfectly fine on my HTC 10. Maybe you should buy a better Smartphone.

I switched to this, is comfy.

A few questionable sites don't work in it but do in Chrome, no big loss.

Firefox and opera good.

Firefox also has extension. And opera mobile browsers has built in proxies since late 00s
>>
>>60542580
Safari doesn't suck.
>>
>>60542730
Firefox is so slow that it discourages me from even using it. When I think "hmm, I could look that up!" I remember how long it'd take that I just put my phone back in my pocket.

Don't get how anyone puts up with that shit

The thing that's best right now I Samsung internet beta, ungoogled chromium with extension support like Adblock. It's also fast as FUCK. Chrome is a turtle compared to it.

TugaBrowser :^)

This pretty much, samsungs browser is the best and supports adblock, also uses servo.

/g/ told me it was botnet

I'm trying it out right now and it seems good though, been browsing random sites for an hour and it still hasn't crashed, so it's already better than what I was using

>>60542580
Via browser.
>>60542730
Opera is shit after redesign.
>>60542645
It uses webview, try updating it.

in lightning you can simply swipe left or right to bring out bookmarks or tabs

why in every chrome copy do they keep the fucking options in the top corner, where your thumbs likely aren't?
>>
>>60543410

Because they don't want normalfags to open 100 tabs, never close them and then complain that the phone is slow
>>
>>60543438
Actually opening hundreds of tabs on your phone is easier than on desktop, they get unloaded faster than you cum so there's always like 10 tabs "open" at most.

Nightly Firefox, Jelly Browser from LineageOS or Chrome optimized for Snapdragon devices (CAF)

It's unironically garbage. Even Lightning is better. But honestly, try Via. I learned of it when it was included in AOSPE ROM, and it's the slickest shit right here.
>>
>>60542580
I just use the default browser, come at me
>>
>>60543699
I tried it once, I don't remember exactly why but I'm not using it anymore clearly.

Sell me on it - I'll give it another chance if it's actually any good.
>>
>>60543708
I mean if you have a samsung phone apparently their default browser is unironically one of the best

Tabs as text, not as previews. UI takes extremely little space. Controls on bottom. Customizable actions for long press on controls. Can view page source. Full page screenshots. Network log, can be used for the built-in adblock(I never tried it though, adaway is good enough). Customizable new tab page(or just open bookmarks). Import/export/sync bookmarks and settings. Userscripts. ADM integration. And it's only 400kb.

How can you use uBlock on Naked Browser?

>>60542701
Literal cuck browser. Just install and adblocker like a fucking normal person.

Botnet but works the best.

Somewhat faster than chrome. Adblock. Sometimes it crashes. AMP links dont work.

>Firefox
Extensions but slow as shit

>Via
Good alternative to chrome. Somewhat slower.

>Opera
Too bloated.

What about CM browser?

Hackintosh and use the only non-botnet browser that actually works really really well.

Chrome with dns66 is good

Browsers are basically a second OS. Think about it. We don't even have a good mature mobile OS, what more a second OS on top of that OS?

Yandex has the best UI for any browser I've used, but I switched to IceCat for the FOSS meme. It's barely usable.
>>
The only two best choices available on the market are Firefox and Brave. The rest is either botnet, bloat or pajeet tier. Puffin is fine if you need playing flash games but enjoy ads and google

>>60542701
Brave on Android is so good that I'm actually considering trying it on the desktop.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with it. The adblocker just werks and overall the browser is pretty fast.
Well, there's one problem. No syncing between devices yet.
