Which browser do you use and why?

Firefox. Equally concerned as well.
-
Despite my issues with it, I use Chrome. It's simply too integrated into my life. But I just saw (like 2 minutes ago) from another thread here about Zen Browser and maaaan is it nice.

Isn't Zen just a skin of firefox, so the same issues? And Arc is VC funded...

Been moving over to LibreWolf and I'm pretty happy with it so far. I added NoScript and CanvasBlocker extensions, along with my password manager, and I'm getting settled in with it now.

Yes, it seems to use the same engine as Firefox.

But not a fork, right? Sorry I don't understand it clearly.

IMO, if I'm going to jump from Chrome it might as well be for libre/OSS. No reason to just from proprietary to proprietary.

Zen Browser is a free and open-source fork of Mozilla Firefox, with its main focus being privacy, customizability and design, and it is licensed under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 (MPL 2.0).
Seems to be a fork.

Recent news about Firefox finally got me to go with LibreWolf.

Chromium browsers are affected by any changes to chrome, I wonder if the same is true for Firefox forks.

Simple forks, sure. Independent forks? No. So I guess it depends on if Zen considers itself independent or not, and I can't seem to find that information.

FireDragon because it's the version of Firefox that Garuda ships with and I never saw a reason to change from it.

Thanks for this. I'm using mainly Firefox to support alternatives to webkit/blink based browsers but the new ToU makes me a bit apprehensive about the direction they're going.
I also had been test driving Falkon from KDE but will look into these as well.

OK! You've had 1 hour to check them out.
What's the difference between the two? -

I used Floorp, it's balanced well between looks and privacy, you can't even enable data collection if you wanted to
-

Apparently, Floorp is another Firefox fork. Has anyone tried this?

There was some sort of bullshit going on in like 2003 with Internet Explorer so my dad switched us to Firefox, Iâve been on it since. Never felt the need to go to Chrome when it cane around.
