Guys what would you recommend to someone that uses a few different browsers for different purposes?
I use Librewolf as my daily driver, Mullvad's browser for things of questionable legality, and Tor for anything else.
Firefox or some flavor of Firefox. Maybe keep a secondary chromium based browser around if there's something you NEED that doesn't work in Firefox for some reason. That said though, I've been Chrome-free for some time with no issue.
Why do you use multiple different browsers? Is it to keep separate profiles and addons?
Vivaldi if you want chromium
Thank you. I already use firefox and I will switch one of my browsers to vivaldi. Any other suggestions?
Why do you need multiple browsers?
My ADHD ass likes to open a lot of tabs so I use browsers as a way of organisation. I'm not sure if there's a browser that would handle an really big amount of tabs. I also kinda see it as a way of spreading the load where I don't have to open a specific browser when I don't need it at the moment.
You can have multiple Firefox profiles if you wanted, they open as different windows
Thanks for info, I will look that up tomorrow.
You can also use Firefox containers that will keep tabs color coded
Thanks for advice but this specific thing wouldn't work out for me.
To test web sites under.
Just a reminder that recommending proprietary software is generally frowned upon.
🙄
I know, I personally don't care, but some people might.
