  DuckDuckGo. Very performant, maybe because of the tracker blocking.

  I try to Tor at home when I can. For everything else, generally Firefox.

  Computer: Firefox and occasional Ungoogled Chromium. Firefox for the plugins and standards.

  Mobile: Fennec, IronFox (Mull discontinued), Bromite, Ungoogled Chromium. I much prefer tab management in Fennec/Firefox variants.

  Firefox, with lots of tweaks. Out of box it is as dumb as chrome. After tweaks it’s half as dumb, but bearable.

  My “truly satisfies” is in vivaldi / presto opera sector. I switched to avoid sudden dead end due to mv3.

  Had been using ungoogled chromium but now I use zen browser. There was an issue with firefox based browsers but removing the cache fixed it.

  Zen is lovely

  Since I work at MSFT, I use Edge on my work computer. My personal computer I use Chrome. I like to keep my bookmarks and browsing history separate between work and personal.

  I use some of the same extensions (Bitwarden being the most important, and Freedom for blocking social media and other timewasters, until 8pm each day).

  "Begin disabling installed extensions still using Manifest V2 in Chrome stable" (chrome.com)

  Firefox is the alternative to a Chrome hegemony (batsov.com)
