If you're not a fan of Firefox right now, with the few odd decisions they've been making, try Floorp or Zen. They're quite good forks of Firefox and don't seem to have any of the recent Firefox oddness in them.

Someone mentioned Zen on the endeavor forums the other day. I've switched to Zen Optimized as my daily driver and I've been pleasantly surprised by how much I like it. I'm not a keyboard shortcuts kinda guy but you do need to learn the tab manipulation shortcuts or it'll drain your sanity right clicking on the icons to close tabs.

Well... I know it's chromium, but I have to admit Vivaldi is easily my favorite browser. It's got a bunch of fairly unique features that I just can't live without. It's got tabs within tabs, tab tiling, a whole side car for websites that you can display while working on whatever Web page you need (works great for social media, music, messaging). I don't have a link, but maybe worth checking it out.

is there a way to force dark mode like in chromium? #enable-force-dark has been a life saver for me. I have a TBI and white screens are physically painful. I keep trying to go back to FireFox, but none of the darkmode addons seem to have this kind of always on, no exceptions kind of feature
Dark Reader can do this, though it requires a little bit of tinkering.
First you need to tick "Enable on restricted pages" in the Advanced section of Dark Readers settings (in the old design the settings can be found under "More > All Settings").
Then in about:config, all entries in extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains need to be removed and privacy.resistFingerprinting.block_mozAddonManager needs to be set to "true".
If some of this doesn't work, there's also a GitHub Discussion with different solutions, but what I wrote here should do the trick.
i have the same issue you have, bright screens are the worst (i hated visiting wikipedia). try this addon in firefox. instead of messing with the colors and the contrast of the page, it rather puts an dark overlay over the entire page, reducing the brightness and preserving the look.

well see now I am in a pickle. Do I go to the webpage that does not allow itself to be accessible and lose a day of my life to drugs and bed. or just keep using what I am using.
Is that how you set up chrome?
