I really like librewolf. Does need some getting used to and actually learn to manage profiles (which it sadly remove the new profile browser for some reason?), but pretty great and “just works”
The only problem is it isn’t based on Chromium tho. That just doesn’t suffice anymore.
I was an avid Firefox user for years and librewolf user for a year after that, but unfortunately, FF hasn’t been able to keep up in terms of web standards.
More and more I kept having pages just not work. I ended up having to install a backup Chromium-based browser bc critical websites like my banking and loan sites only worked on Chromium-based browsers. Eventually, I caved. If I had to have a second,Chromium-based browser anyway, I might as well just use that for everything.
I wanted to not use Chromium, but FF has lost the war. Chromium runs the show now. No more fighting back. Google owns the internet.
So now I’m on Brave, and honestly it’s way better than Librewolf these days. I would recommend any librewolf user switch over to that.
One of the few chromies that has adblock still as well as decent privacy-by-default settings. I just disable the AI stuff. It doesn’t have crypto stuff anymore (at least not in your face; I’m sure you can still re-enable it). It’s the best chromium browser by far.
I use Firefox every day of my life on multiple platforms. It works great. And I don’t need to fund crypto scams or contribute to the death of an open internet to use it. Cope.
Same. Or if there is a problem, I have no reason to believe it’s due to what browser I’m using. Sometimes there’s technical issues on the other end. Opening a support ticket can help get things straightened out.
It’s weird how i still haven’t run into any of those sites after years of using firefox. For me it not being chromium is a positive, especially with this recent adblock nonsense that google is pulling.
Yeah it was good for a while. But now a few important websites for me just don’t work anymore, like a page for paying my loan. It only worked in chromium browsers. I know that chromium will work everywhere because they’re the first to implement the newest standards and are the most supported by developers due to it having a huge market share. I can’t rely on knowing firefox will work anymore. I’ve lost faith in it as a product.
I believed the same things… in around 2014. By internet standards, that’s an absolutely ancient perspective, and absolutely untrue these days. My main browser is Floorp, a Firefox fork, and I’ve found a total of one website that actually doesn’t work, which was just a huge directory listing.

Why would you choose the crypto bro ad company browser out of all the chrome spinoffs?
Why not use any of the others?

This is all kinds of wrong. Fuck Brave and fuck Chromium.
Brave works. Firefox doesn’t. Cope

Interesting, I use FF for everything, on android, Linux & windows, no problems.
Good for you. It works for most websites. But when I can’t pay my loan bc firefox is crapping itself, it means I can’t use firefox.
The only things I’ve encountered that don’t work are webusb things and snapchat but snapchat you can just change user agent and it’s fine.

But brave has adblock, so it’s all good
Yeah but i don’t like that it’s chromium, and the crypto stuff has always put me off.
Well it really depends on your use case because as a daily driver I never see any buggy page. Not even the enhanced protection thing is blocking pages

Yeah I feel like OP is either lying or incompetent
