Vivaldi?
Because has some of the feature of pre-chrome opera.

I'm still kinda pissed that it doesn't have torrent torrent function, it works like a bot on gravel in low specs PCs and you can't order the bookmarks.

What makes these other browsers not botnets?

>>52300795
Chrome mostly, gmail user, least friction on the web in general...aka "just werks"
Id consider using Edge/IE if/once extensions are supported.

Chromer.

>>52301088
Interesting, just installed this.
Seems quicker to load pages, but seems to use more memory than a chrome with similar amount of tabs open does.

Why can't their be a slick looking browser that doesn't chew memory and is fast.

eh, this tabstacking is kinda subpar.

Treetab in Firefox is good.

Chrome is based on chromium. Chromium is open source and doesn't have all the Google shit built into it.

I use chrome now, but I hate the profile button in the top right. I was not able to get rid of it with Chromium either.

What do I do?
>>
Heavily customised Firefox.
I'd use Icecat but last time I tried it a bunch of websites just plain failed to work.

Firecuck

I like the addons and I disabled Hello and Pocket in the about:config

There's a lot more you should disable, friend.

Firefox, always.
>>
Firefox for muh vertical tabs.
>>
chrome because sync between my devices, also too lazy to switch to another browser
>>
Edge for general browsing, Firefox if I actually need features.
I know people are going to shit on me for this, but edge is fucking quick.

Also, just Firefox for Linux.
>>
Firefox on older single core (linux) machines

Opera on everything else
>>
>>52308083
don't you have to log into the google botnet to use that feature?
>>
>>52308163
no it is always logged in

Just switched back from Firefox to Chrome. I like Firefox's UI better, but Chrome is less crashy and fucks up fewer sites.

>>52308169

Chromium and Firefox but only because of "compatibility" with websites.

I use chrome because it just werks. I would prefer Firefox but I don't like the mobile interface and on windows 10 it is pretty fucky and the interface glitches and goes white on the taskbar at the top when my theme is black

Only two options,
1. Use a different browser.
2. Try to find the best rated build of chrome/chromium.

I haven't used chrome as my primary web browser for nearly a year or two, so I am not sure if it is possible to get rid of the profile button, but I would imagine that it is deeply embedded in chrome.

>>52300795
Pale Moon. It has a usable GUI with sane defaults and so far all my plugins work.
>>
>>52308488

I'd use Pale Moon, but for some reason there's a handful of little annoyances that stop me.

- Scrolling feels slower and choppier than Firefox' (with smooth scrolling disabled on both)
- Triple click for highlighting complete phrases doesn't work, even when it's enabled in about:config
- Sometimes I'll watch a video in full screen, and when I exit full screen mode Pale Moon just fucking closes itself

Pretty sure these are just problems on my end, but Firefox JUST WERKZ
>>
>>52308538
>Pretty sure these are just problems on my end
Yeah, I have none of the problems you describe.
>>
>>52308538
