I want to switch from Chrome and want the best alternative

Fuck off if you wont contribute

>>61849572
think of it as chrome but with less functionality

Why are brave marketers targeting 4chan lately?

>>61849689
God fucking damn it go fuck yourself or answer my question

I wouldnt have come to /g/ if i knew you guys are such paranoid cunts. Youre almost as bad as the faggots who yell "slide thread" on pol

>>61849631
So switch and see for yourself, fucking kike. Why do you need the ramblings of a handful of autists do make simple decisions like trying out a different browser.

>>61849572

I use it on android

>>61849724
Fuck me for thinking that /g/ knows a bit more about software than me

No you're the jew you shilling piece of shit.

>>61849572
It's fucking unusable for me. Twitch videos stopping and reloading, not opening links, I saved some pictures and afterwards saw I can't even open them, etc. I tried, but this is utterly terrible.

nice shoop, is this the power of opera?

Why is /g/ so obsessed with chromium browsers?
They're all equally shit

Wait, there are internet browsers other than FireFox?

I could of sworn every other "browser" available is simply a proprietary network portal for clicking on ads. I mean, what other solution is the market going to come to with pay-per-click, conversions, and similar payment schemes?

Thank you for supporting globalism.

Thanks Vivaldi

>>61849572
just werks on android but only a handful of handpicked plugins for pc so it lacks that to be comfy

>>61850649

>>61850221
Stick with what works for you, nothing wrong with that.

>>61850125
Majority of browsers are just chromium skins desu

>>61849702
you seem very new. Judging by the exclusion of "/" from /pol/ I can tell you're one of the newfags who flooded 4chan during the election. Read the sticky and you'll see that /g/ is not your personal tech support forum.

Wow. Brave is decent. I would use Firefox if it wasn't so cucked.

Go back there

this. too bad you can't customize the ad lists. it would be maybe decent then.

Desktop: waterfox
Mobile: Firefox nightly

Below is my dexie fuelled explanation:

So I used to use brave on my mobile and Vivaldi on my desktop. My main search engine was/is duckduckgo.
Up until recently when I did a clean install on my desktop. I had just installed Vivaldi. Went and took a dump, whilst taking said dump, I searched "why is op a Massive faggot." (I actually searched something else but it's beside the point) after i returned to my desktop, I launched Vivaldi and proceeded to type the same query into the search bar. And what do you know, "why is op a Massive faggot," came up in the suggested searches.
I believe it was due to both browsers being chromium based, could have also been the fact I use an Android phone. All I know is, since switching to waterfox and FF nightly I havn't noticed any thing of the likes.

>>61849572
I get screen tearing on it when it plays videos. It's still shit on desktop and only good on android. Firefox nightly is a better alternative.

>>61849572
It uses AdBlock instead of uBlock origin. Adblock is a lot shittier and runs much worse the more filters you add. In fact it made Brave open twice as slow and navigate twice as slow with only half the filters I'd normally use on uBlock Origin. Until they migrate from ABP to uBO I'm not even gonna consider using it on desktop.

>>61850886
You got him, and revealed yourself in the process. Kill you're self.

>>61849572
what happened to open sourced browsers, not enough incentives to keep it going?

>>61852023
Firefox (and it's forks), Brave, Chromium and Iridium are open source. What are you talking about?

Reminder to hide and report all shill threads created by Brave marketers.

It's literally adware

>>61849572
no plugins

>>61852074
It's not. But it has problems like no uBlockO. Definitely shit on desktop.

>>61851034
firefox runs like utter shite on mobile. damn shame. can't stand mobile browser limitations.

>No Mouse Gestures
>2017
I would rather die than browse without Mouse Gestures

>>61849572

>extremely poor security

Good goy, please use Brave, so you will have been thieved. :^)

>>61849572
It's a trashy botnet, just like chromium and all derivatives.
Use Firefox nightly instead.

>>61849572
All Chromium browsers are shit and I can't fathom why people enjoy sucking dick.

Brave based off Chromium and has absolute shit plugin/customize support. If you want to be their free guinea pig to improve their coding be my guest.

I won't use it simply because they refuse to add ublock and noscript because "they're adding similar features in the future"

I use Waterfox only because Palemoon community is full of pretentious faggots.

Opera is chink shit.

>>61849572

I tried it last night and it was laggy as fuck.

I tried Waterfox instead and got much better results.

Add ons, some of us can't live without Lastpass

I've been using it for about 2 months now with zero complaints. Great software, thanks whoever here recommended it.

Relatively new to android and initially I didn't want to use Chrome for obvious reasons. Installed Firefox but it just didn't function well enough. It had uBlock but web pages wouldn't function properly and it was slow and occasionally crashed. It was like a trip back to 2012 when smartphone were already popular but still far from equivalent to desktop browsing.

I switched to Chrome and it was a huge improvement. Random videos played, interactive functionalities worked etc. But there were ads everywhere.

Brave is the best of two worlds. Unless an update changes something drastically I don't see myself even needing to try another browser in the near future.

>>61849756
I hate the idea of ad replacements or adblocks accepting money to whitelist certain ads, but have to say I haven't seen a single ad (replaced or not) since I started using it.
>>61849649
Name ONE functionality chrome has not found in Brave. For real though, because I haven't noticed anything missing.

>>61855379
Thank you anon for your gr8 recommendation of Brave® browser. Thanks to your genuine and unpaid glowing review I have made sure to install Brave® browser on all my devices as well as those of all my family members. Brave® browser truly is the browser to beat, the competition just can't stack up.


Brave® browser is the browser you need!™

Nightly seems to run fine recently.

I admit I haven't used it in over a month, but I have a hard time believing all this

has changed in under 2 months.

As long as you sticked with very basic text based websites it was totally fine. But embedded videos, interactive elements etc. caused it to shit the bed immediately. The last straw was how the "Choose File" button on 4chan stopped working. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it with no change.

Why? Dedicated apps will always outperform browsers.

Well you make an excellent case!
It's faster, more mobile intuitive and has no ads.

Tried it recently. I think it's pretty nice.
Needs some plugins though.

>>61849572
I've been using it for two days. Just basic browsing thus far, but I like it.

>>61856291
I also tried out Firefox a few months ago and found it to be trash.
I tried it again with the release of 57, and it's improved greatly.
The load times and scrolling performance are both still worse than chrome, but using the browser is bearable now. Combine the better performance with ublock origin and the fact that it's FOSS, and I have no issues using it now.

Firefox sync is also nice to have.

>>61856337
I tried two 4chan apps on the play store and both were worse than just using a browser. Didn't try clover though. Do I need to install F-droid to install it? I read the web pages and know what they say, I'm just asking what the situation is in practice. The site claims it's "less secure" unless I install the entire F-droid repository.
>no ads
Neither does brave browser though.

>>61849689
Because everyone is finally sick of jewggle you retard

>>61856490
Don't use clover, go with dashchan. Clover is shovelware people keep shilling.

Why do we see this exact same thread multiple times per day? Same image, same text. I usually don't believe that people are paid to shill on 4chan but this is looking pretty blatant.

>>61856490
Just use clover like everyone else.
You don't need to get it from fdroid.

Thanks I guess I'll try both. Though the site works great with Brave™ Browser with it's fun for the whole family set of features!

No but seriously only trouble is having to check tabs to see if there are new replies. Webms etc. work fine. I don't know if enabling auto-update would help, haven't actually tried it on mobile even though I've used it on PC forever.

>>61856490
Download the app from fdroid site. You don't need fdroid.
