Which do you prefer when browsing LQ?

--jeremy

Firefox is still my browser that I am comfortable with.

After having left Firefox before their "Quantum" we-break-everything release, I still don't regret my move to Vivaldi.

Hate all modern browsers - all are far too bloated - so I vote dillo

They all do the same. It is a little like: “Do you prefer the sun or the moon?”

To which I respond: Of course, w3m as it works where nothing else works (alike).
“Of course, the moon. It lightens up the night, while the sun shines during the day, when it is already clear...”

I never liked lynx.

Yes, but dillo is getting to where it won't load half of the pages you try to open.
I've started replacing it with:
For a real browser I vote for Palemoon this time.

I like Firefox. I like umatrix to handle allowing of scripts, and too many that have built-in can't disable it to use a good blocker like umatrix instead of the default one. Vivaldi is my second favorite though, especially since they've made vast improvements since the 2.8 series releases in stability.

Firefox because I can and have edited it in about:config blocking all 27 entries of Google spying and disabling all telemetry with other mods, here https://restoreprivacy.com/firefox-privacy/ and here https://gist.github.com/0XDE57/fbd302cef7693e62c769

What about luakit ? Great and lightweight!

+1 for firefox...

I use firefox on one system, palemoon on another.
Neither fully satisfies me, both leave a weird aftertaste.
At least I can run uMatrix on both.

Really my vote should be "No chrom/e/ium based browsers".

Firefox, despite that I curse them every time I update the browser and they have changed the UI and I have to search all over again to figure out how to put tabs where they should be, below the url bar. When Mozilla rids of userChrome, I will switch to Seamonkey.

Firefox for me also, but growing tired of it.

Vivaldi for a second year. It's customisable, fast, and the dev team listen to their users and implement changes whenever they can.

I don't have any real preferences. I run a mixture of older and newer Puppies; some 32-bit, some 64-bit. I use Chrome, Opera, Iron, Firefox - both current Quantum and ESR releases.....and also Palemoon on older Pups, for its lightweight nature.

I used to be a die-hard Firefox user, up until the release of Chrome back in Autumn of 2008; at that time, FF was undergoing memory-usage issues, plus it had a habit of regularly crashing. Chrome was light, fast, and amazingly stable. I fell in love with it, and it was my go-to browser for many years.

With the release of Quantum, there became little to choose between them, so I started using both. Various Chromium-based 'clones' have also provided reliable service. In the last few weeks, I've started using Opera on the 64-bit Pups, and it's more-or-less replaced Chrome for these....

Currently posting this from the newest version of Iron (v78), running in Lucid Puppy 5.2.8.7 from a chroot 'jail'.
