Firefox has been good to me, because I use linux as well, and its sync cross platform capabilities is very useful.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

For me Firefox containers are the killer app - one for each persona... though they don't sync well across platforms.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, I was also using firefox before mac, so using it there was a no brainer.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago

Firefox, it's the only way 🫡

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

I’m a sucker for the iCloud integration so I still use Safari.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Same. Also, it’s very good.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Trying out Arc and liking it so far.

Firefox. I switched recently since Chrome was set on using every resource on my computer.

Orion. As good as Safari, but works with Firefox and Chrome Extensions.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Wow. Thanks for mentioning this.

I wish there were some sort of bonus thank you points on Lemmy. I guess I'll just give you a 🍟

Firefox mostly. Safari for things that don’t load right on Firefox. Chrome for work (mandatory for my job).

I tried using Safari multiple times, but I run back to Firefox every time.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

All Safari for me

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I use Firefox, because of Firefox containers and total cookie protection.

But with Safari adding profiles to the next version, I will need to revisit Safari again.

I just use Safari, same on my phone. Makes it easier to use the same thing and I like the password manager and SMS auto fill.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Mostly Firefox since it has great crossplatform support and is open-source. But I do occasionally use Safari/Chrome/Opera

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Arc is amazing

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Safari mostly. I prefer the incredibly minimal UI and iCloud integration. With some Userscripts and an adblocker like Wipr it's smooth sailing.

As a backup I use Firefox modified to look like Safari: Safari Firefox Mod - https://github.com/AdamXweb/WhiteSurFirefoxThemeMacOS

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

What user-script are you using on safari?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

If you're looking for a chrome-adjacent experience but with way more flexibility, I've been really enjoying Vivaldi over brave

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Arc! I love it so much. Vertical tabs and spaces are game changers for me. Also little things like external links opening in a “little arc” window, certain links on the web not opening as full tabs, and having a hotkey to search from anywhere are such nice QoL improvements.

Wish it wasn’t a chromium browser, but the pros it provides in features far outweighs the cons of using chromium (for me).

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

+1 for Arc!

I like safari, but use firefox so the sync works with between Mac, iPhone, FreeBSD Desktop, and Work Windows Laptop.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Arc! No plans of going back!

Chrome for work. As a web dev, it's our primary target. Firefox for personal stuff, just to keep the logins separated, plus, I've been using Firefox as my primary browser since the mid '00s; creature of habit, at this point.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Firefox is my choice. Can’t live without sync and I use quite a few extensions that can’t be found in other browsers.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I used Microsoft Edge when I had a Mac.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Waterfox at the moment. It reduces some of the telemetry in vanilla Firefox, it's fast, and it's very stable. I refuse to install or use anything Chrome-based on my Mac. If I need (for some reason) to use Chrome, I use my work laptop for that.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Mostly Brave. I LOVE it's adblocking and overall privacy. I'd probably just use Safari if it blocked as well though.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Firefox Nightly..run it on macOS, FreeBSD and my android phone

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

DuckDuckGo and their Bitwarden integration is great. Arc is also interesting.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Arc. I am a big fan of Stack Next too, but it's still too far out in development to be a daily driver.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

TIL I need to try this Arc thing out... but for now I use Brave, synced across all of my devices, perfection.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Arc is great - i've really been loving it so far. https://arc.net/

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I only use Firefox on desktop

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I use Firefox on all platforms.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Brave pretty much all the time as I work on Mac and Windows, and use iPhone but also have a couple of old Android tablets. It all just syncs, no ads and no adblockers needed

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Firefox for extension, safari for everything else including sync, performance, battery life, ...

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Went for Arc and do not want to go back to anything else. I avoided using Safari, hated it just as much as I hated IE and Edge afterwards.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Brave with uBlock Origin, AdGuard AdBlocker and Bitwarden.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I'm using Safari
It looks good, feels fast (although I haven't done much comparison). But tab-groups connected to focus mode really seals the deal for me.
The one thing I do wish for is more extensions, but most of the key ones I need are fortunately available.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Firefox. Adblocking options aren't that good in Safari, Chrome is soon to ruin adblockers, and I trust Mozilla's intentions more than I do Brave's.

Firefox is awesome now, you should try it!

Firefox works very well on my Mac. That's the one I use
