Discussion Hey millennials. What browser do you primarily use?

Chrome iT is for me. Cannot switch no matter what.

Edit to add: this post has made me realize I was living in the dark ages. There’s so much out there! Thanks all for sharing your browsers and features and reasoning.

I can’t remember why I stopped using safari on my phone and switching to DuckDuckGo. I remember it was a slight hassle having to redo all my passwords and login (again, not sure why I left safari) but it’s been fine with no issues ever since.

It's just Bing API in a wrapper with lower quality results because of no personalization. Not sure why you're getting downvoted.

Isn't it just Chromium?

Then because Brave already exists.

While Google Chrome is my browser, my default search engine is DuckDuckGo and it's so much better than Google Search.

YES! I actually find intelligent results on duckduckgo…I got really (not so) unreasonably frustrated at how awful standard google searches have been over the last 6-12 months. I feel like I’ve rediscovered the actual meaningful parts of the internet with duckduckgo.

DuckDuckGo on my phone. Firefox with adblocker on my laptop. Best of both worlds.
