Mull has been very good to me, so I've stuck to using it so far.

Firefox for work and most things due to it being open source and with a good ad and tracker blocker.
Chrome for YT (AdBlock off to support creators) and for running the incremental games for my channel (they generally work better with Chrome). Although I am considering switching to Vivaldi for this purpose.
Aside from needing to have grapheneOS, Is there any reason not to use vandium on mobile?

Mull on phone, Librewolf on PC
Using Orion on iOS currently (thereβs a macOS version too). Itβs made by the same people behind the Kagi search engine. Iβm loving it. Built with WebKit and on mobile it utilises some power saving feature Safari does not.
They plan to release a Windows version eventually too, and using WebKit! (Not Chromium).
how about mullvad browser? thatβs what i started using. based on tor but less overkill :)
Chrome for anything Google related. Firefox + NoScript for most browsing. I have pi-hole running on my network and don't permit anything but that node to query outbound for DNS.
I use Arc and Orion for my computer. Mobile I use DDG and Orion
Is Arc still mac only?
Waterfox G5, because it's literally just modern Firefox ESR but with the ability to install legacy add-ons re-enabled.
I use this to make my own personal CSS themes and JS add-ons (as well as use existing ones like in the link above) and manage them in a way that's more elegant and streamlined than userChrome.
Personal Use:
- Firefox with all privacy guards enabled on PC
- Samsung Internet and Firefox on mobile
Work Use: Edge. Honestly such an impressive browser - much faster than other browsers ime, great set of built in tools. If it wasn't for the privacy concerns, I would probably shift to Edge.
I've found vanilla chromium to be as fast as and occasionally faster than edge.
qutebrowser
Either Firefox or Librewolf (fork of Firefox). On my Lineage, I use Fennec. I usually restrict it even more with custom uBlock Origin filters and dnsmasq sinkholes to get away from 'Sign in with Google'-like popups, though.
I have changed browser maybe every five or so years, whenever I had issues with the one I'm using. I've been back on Firefox as primary for a couple of years now.
Firefox
IceRaven (for the addons and a few enhancements) and Bromite. Both are not good choices as they are poorly supported, but that's the reality of mobile browsers I guess.
Tbh I hate mobile browsers in general. I don't understand why they have to be so crippled, especially FF and its forks that keep getting worse with every major version.
Iβm really enjoying Arc - the keyboard functionality is great, I like the way spaces work, and itβs quite pretty. I recommend checking it out if you can get an invite.
Edge.
Native vertical tabs + edge drop is just too good.
Vivaldi. I was a huge Opera fan before they sold out, and Vivaldi is as close as possible to that in a modern browser. I also sometimes use Firefox, but find Vivaldi is faster, has features that work better together than a mishmash of extensions, and works with more stuff because chromium.
Firefox all the way. Vanilla on desktop and Iceraven (a Firefox fork) on mobile. I also have Wolvic installed on my Quest 2 which came from Firefox's VR browser, but I never browse the internet in VR lol
Safari for everything. I'm deep in the apple ecosystem. Edge when I'm on my PC, once in a blue moon.
I use Vivaldi and Firefox. I like Vivaldi customisability, tabbing, workspaces, rss support and Firefox robustness. Vivaldi also supports mail etc but i have not used that yet.
Firefox.
I've been using it since the Phoenix days. I occasionally go to Vivaldi (which is currently my secondary browser), but currently I'm back with Firefox.
Brave on mobile and desktop
Ungoogled Chromium.
I was looking for private browsers, and found myself astonished at how the market is saturated in Chromium-based browsers, and how every website seems to only support theses browsers, so I had to accept that Chromium will be all there is until a new big thing appears, and wound up finding a Chromium fork that seems to remove all google aspects from it. I've had to tweak a few things but the experience has been very smooth so far.

I use Vivaldi, because it just has a better UI and better usability features.
