Vivaldi and Librewolf are good recommends. So good call by the author.
I wish I could completely ditch Blink based browsers for Gecko ones, just because I dislike how dominant Blink is thanks to Chrome. But some sites don't render correctly on Gecko. So a fallback is needed.
Edit: I haven't used Vivaldi in a long time, and apparently it's not what I thought it was. Are there really no outstanding open source Blink-based browser out there?
What's wrong with Vivaldi?
Some people are uncomfortable with it being closed-source. It's more of a philosophical objection than a criticism of the browser's functionality.
Fair enough. I love the browser and while I know there's ways to emulate the same experience, its native with this one.
If you dont require open-source in your decision, Vivaldi is great. Its what i use most. It has a ton of granular features that i appreciate, but can be a bit too much for folks that want a more minimal experience.
Agreed. It's the enthusiast's browser for sure.
