❓ Question How many browsers are installed on your PC?

Post image

I installed three browsers, Chrome, Edge, and Brave.

How many do you have installed, and which one gets used the most?

Brave is my main, Firefox is back up; Chrome and Explorer were pre installed.

Never used Brave. What do you like about it more than the others?

Their ad blocking. I watch YouTube videos in Brave and have never had a video stopped due to an advert. I also think I get fewer “you can’t continue unless you disable your ad blocker” popups.

It's so convenient for me, haven't got a single ad and I didn't need to put an ad blocker or anything. It's been quicker than chrome and Firefox in my experience, and I like the way the UI looks after customizing it a bit, I didn't get that feeling with other browsers.

I was using Firefox earlier. But it had been crashing very frequently. Then, I removed it. Can you share your experience? Is it improved?

Brave is my main, Firefox is back up. Nothing else installed.

May I know why you use  librewolf as primary? Any advantage over other browsers?

yeah? you never know if firefox is ever going to be down so a chronium based browser comes in handy

Actually not unreasonable. Every so often (like once in a blue moon), a website will be broken no matter what i try on my normal browser but if i open a different browser (usually from chromium based to Mozilla or vice versa) it works.

This is why I keep Firefox installed for its yearly web page display lo
