Which browser do you use and why?
-
I use Firefox and Chrome as I am not a woke vegan

I like zen a lot but I’m struggling to drag a tab from one window to another. The sidebar always collapses on the target window before the tab gets there. Any tips?
Perhaps right click on the sidebar -> disable compact mode? I haven't had any issues moving tabs between windows, but then again I keep the sidebar persistent

Using firefox but concerned now
I've been using Zen for the past couple days and it's absolutely spectacular. I really really been enjoying it.
It claims to be a fork of Firefox but there's still Firefox under the hood and you can tell. But I find that it runs significantly faster than Firefox standard. So who knows. The author seems to be making it as ambiguous as possible so I would think that it's a soft fork that's basically stock Firefox with a few minor changes and a new look.

Firefox. Google removed a valuable addon from their store without justifiable reason and kept it removed because there's not sufficient backlash.
The addon is AdNauseam. It's an improvement on uBlock Origin that clicks adds in addition to hiding them.
Ubo prevents ad resources from being loaded, not loading / rendering ads at all makes a major difference in battery and bandwidth usage in my experience. Most notably bandwidth usage drops by %90 in most extreme cases.

The only thing that sucks about it is some sites just flat out don't work well. For example, in Librewolf I cannot login to my banks website. The site loads, but the login just hangs. Firefox it works immediately.
I believe Librawolf defaults to "strict" fingerprinting blocking. Try setting it to moderate and see if that works with your bank

I like librewolf but for me video is so incredibly slow. Is anyone else having this issue?
I haven't but maybe make a post if the other guys comment to enable webgl didnt work.

I do believe I tried that but I'll try again, thanks.

I use several, depending on use case:
- Tor Browser for general and anonymous web browsing (e.g. reading news, looking up stuff, and so on)
- Mullvad Browser as a clear web alternative for general use
- Librewolf for generally logging into sites with personally identifiable accounts (e.g. to buy stuff)
- Ungoogled Chromium for those few sites which only work with a Chromium-based browser, or other specific cases
- On Android: Tor Browser and Vanadium
Do you script it so when it is an Ebay/Amazon link, Libre Wolf is opened? Or you just remember to do so?/

I use Librewolf, I manage passwords with pass and rofi.
Hoppefuly AIs will write a new FOSS web browser. I read here and here that the web standards are too big to be implemented by humans.the GNU pass encrypt using gpg? How do you transfer between devices, using cloud?

I have found Mozilla's sync across devices handy, but now I'm in the process of moving over to using Vanadium on my GrapheneOS phone and FireDragon on desktop.
FireDragon started out as a Librewolf fork, but is more recently based on Floorp. They are still keeping in sync with Librewolf's privacy enhancements, with some of their own thrown in. I like that the default search engine is Garuda's instance of Searx, with Whoogle as another option if you don't want to self host. FireDragon will also sync your Firefox account off Garuda's server instance if you like (which would be more useful if I weren't going with a Chromium fork on mobile). The Garuda project is certainly looking more trustworthy than Mozilla these days.

It is that software. https://www.passwordstore.org/
I still backup in an external dd but there are ways to store them online, like a git repository as instance. -

Ungoogled chromium, sadly FF has been getting worse over the years (partially because it is getting worse and partially because web developers happen to ignore it's existence) also Chromium has superior security.
I'm hopeful about the future of ladybird but it will take a long time until it is a possible daily driver.
Chromium has superior security
I hadn't heard that before. Do you have a source that I can read up more on it?

FF is evil now?

Waterfox is based on esr, so quite outdated. Just use librewolf and some css. You have firefox-one that will make it look pretty and similar to zen. Zen is no good if you care about privacy.
