I want to switch to a more privacy focused browser, would like to hear what yall use currently and why.

Edit: I’m currently using edge.

Edit: Thanks everyone for your input. I have decided to go with floorp (a firefox fork) with betterfox. Here's my decision process,

  1. Firefox based browser
    • To help with browser monopoly
    • I really like the sidebery extension
  2. I chose floorp instead of ff or other ff forks because of the ease of customization
    • I also tried zen browser but experienced a bug just from my short usage so I think it's not mature enough for me currently, but I do like the project.
  3. Betterfox + extensions for better privacy settings
    • Ublock Origin
    • ClearURLs
    • Decentraleyes

Did not choose to go with LibreWolf, Mullvad etc because I'm worried about site breakages.

    Any issue with websites breaking? Since sites only care about chromium support nowadays

      I've had a couple sites break but idk if that's because of Firefox or because of my privacy add ons.

      The pay bill button on my capital one CC account doesn't work on Firefox. Once a month I have to use a chromium based browser.

      My car insurance does not work on Firefox. Bungie website does not work half the time. Maybe some others I can't think of. It really sucks. I just have chrome installed for when something breaks really sucks.

      The only broken thing is very specific stuff like Slack calls. In fact, it's the only broken thing I've seen in a long while. Also fuck Slack.

      I haven't really had any problems with any sites yet. Except for Google Meet. For some reason it's totally laggy and sluggish on Firefox but works perfectly on Chrome.

      Currently using Firefox since half a year for everyday stuff and work.
