Firefox

[–] Electricd@lemmybefree.net 0 points 8 hours ago

Mozilla also has many problems

[–] CosmoNova@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago (4 children)

Sure I use that too but you should have at least one chromium based browser for certain features though.

[–] ChairmanMeow@programming.dev 2 points 12 hours ago

I personally haven't had to use a chromium browser for anything yet since my swith to Firefox. Only to test a render bug in chromium that Google hasn't bothered to fix in over 9 years for a case that works correctly in every other browser.

I use LibreWolf (FireFox fork) + Ungoogled Chromium

[–] Zink@programming.dev 3 points 12 hours ago

This is my setup, and I never actually use ungoogled chromium.

If I have some kind of issue that I need to work around immediately rather then figure out, I usually just open Firefox and try that.

Why should you? What are these certain features?

[–] CosmoNova@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Yes some tools do not work with Firefox. It‘s a niche but I‘ve run into it a few times just recently. For example with a gamepad enabler tool where Firefox simply won‘t be able to see your USB input.

[–] HorseFD@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

The thing is, Firefox follows web standards. Chrome doesn’t always and websites put in custom code that works only with Chrome.

I’d rather use the browser that follows standards.

Vivaldi? (Sort of continuation of Opera, run by it's former CTO.)

[–] Bluewing@lemmy.world 0 points 14 hours ago

Vivaldi is OK, but I would replace it with something else. It's a pretty busy UI and I have had issues with it freezing in Fedora 42 KDE.
