Eww I'm not touching any browsers based on Chromium
Well that leaves Firefox (and it’s forks, too many to list) and safari to choose from.
Chrome, brave, edge, opera, vivaldi and a few more I can’t remember are based on chromium
Edit: realized my mistake about opera and vivaldi
Opera sold its soul some years ago. It is also chromium based.
I keep hearing this but can’t find any basis for this
Yeah, since 2013. It's in the wikipedia entry
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opera_(web_browser)
I looked it up and corrected my post. Had to change Vivaldi also as it is opera fork.
I honestly thought you were talking about the “opera is owned by china” fud
