@Madchatthew I use it here. It is faster, but not sure if that extends to build times.
Which Browser The Best!
-
@phenomlab Waterfox had a lot of issues when I tried it a long time ago. IDK about the current situation.
I use Librewolf as my primary browser with some minor un-hardening because some privacy things were making my life hard.
I also use brave to test my website’s compatibility with chromium browsers, and yea I’ve also disabled that crypto trash completely from settings and disabled the flags with matching names. -
Currently using Brave, we’ll have done for probably at least a year.
-
@JAC Yes, I recently switched back to Brave - good browser, but seems to have issues with caching (stale files) meaning it’s not that great for development of code.
-
Vivaldi is very good and I love the new functionnality with Workspaces.
-
Yes, I’ve tried Vivaldi on many occasions, and actually quite liked it.
-
And so, after much deliberation, I’ve gone back to Firefox on my Android device at least. No other browser seems to have built in support for mobile add-ons, and to my mind, seeing as virtually all Internet traffic these days is from Mobile devices, this is a glaring oversight from the likes of Edge etc that means they will miss out on a huge market share.
-
Now trying out Firefox latest build on my PC - so far, so good, and because I’m so used to Chrome, I’ve made it look similar at the very least
-
I’ve hit a snag. The development (F12) tools on Firefox really aren’t that great and it doesn’t behave in the same way as every other WebKit based browser does.
The ability to highlight specific elements is missing, and you cannot click vars which would typically be a link to the value. Nothing happens when you do click then, and that’s going to completely change the way I develop.
Not good. Going to check to see if there’s anything I can do about that. If not, goodbye Firefox…
-
After much deliberation, I’ve stopped using Firefox. Just too many things I dislike - in fact, way more than I’d care to list. I’ve gone back to using Edge - both on my desktop, and mobile. I think the thing that really put me off was the stock developer tools in Firefox. They are simply awful in my view and not a great experience at all.
In fairness, there is this
https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/developer/
However, having checked, the F12 developer console is exactly the same??
-
Personnaly, I don’t use firefox since 2 or 3 years for Vivaldi for so many reasons but I still recommend Firefox to those who have basic use of the web.
I love the console of Vivaldi on Desktop

Tried this browser again this evening. It’s an acquired taste in my view. Not something I’d specifically choose. Reminds me somehow of how Opera used to be.

Vivaldi
Will take a look at this now, looks fairly good, very similar to Brave?
-
@JAC yes, same here. A lot of that functionality made it’s way into Vivaldi so you will probably feel at home.
-
Anyone tried this? - https://librewolf.net/
-
@JAC yes, for a short time. It’s quite good but I’m no Firefox fan which is what this is based on.
-
@phenomlab I mainly use Brave & Vivaldi myself, the lack of android platform is definitely a turn off.
-
You have Floorp too. It’s a firefox Fork with several functionnality of Vivaldi
Given the twist that Firefox is taking, this should be taken into consideration.Here an article on my forum (in french --> Use traduction)
Hmm my favicon doesn’t work grrrrrrrrr
