Which Web Browser is your primary?

The poll is limited to 10 options, if you use another use the 'Other' selection and leave a comment.

Over many years I have tried many, if not most, browsers. Lately I use Firefox-esr almost exclusively. Any others are simply experiments driven by curiosity.

Chromium because I can use the dark mode flag as I am getting old and my eyes are getting even older.

  • firefox-esr mostly and
  • w3m for distraction-less reading. I'm surprised how many news sites just work with w3m, even though there's no javascript and I also disable w3m-img, so it's pure text. Love it!

Vivaldi with javascript disabled for my daily usage. Firefox ESR for most "serious" sites that require javascript (e.g. banking).

Predominantly Firefox ESR but also MS Edge Dev for some tasks.

I'm using Edge in Linux these days. On my Windows work PC I have a 34" curved monitor and vertical tabs in Edge are quite the thing.

Not a fan of Firefox, never have been. chromium in Sid has been plagued with problems (not sure if that's still true) so have been using Chrome until I switched to Edge. I think giving my data to Microsoft instead of Google might make things a little more secure :)

When I do announcements or other news releases I always use Seamonkey as my preview/test browser. It is rock solid, fast, renders pages and text in absolutes and shows exactly what the end result will be, the suite is also pretty good for making minor changes to webpages without the complications some other browsers can introduce into the creative process. I love it. I also use it when the multiple extensions on FF cannot be disabled for some reason for a website. Glad to see another user. :)

eta: my actual daily use browser is Firefox-Nightly, the resets can be annoying but it is top notch for features and allows one to give back to the process.
