That's why I recommend Firefox if you're an open source advocate. It's not as if they're going to fork the whole project if Google makes progressive worse choices. Tech like Manifest v3 and FLoC that are generally bad for ad-blockers and privacy.īrave for example has managed to push back on a lot of these standards, but there's a limit. Google develops Chromium in the open but the development is tightly managed and they push a lot of dumb standards. Like 80% of all software is open source now, except maybe at Apple. Open standards tend to do better over time, things developed in the open tend to be more secure, and seriously open source is everywhere.

Open source is less about what software is like now and more about what it's going to look like in the future. So I'll hit two topics that are near and dear to me: I prefer also reading a fellow's details of their own knowledge and expertise. Yes I understand this is all researchable, I'm on it. How about open source importance? Chromium is open source but some people said it pledges allegiance to Google or smt?Īre there any browsers that are unsafe to log into back accounts or any payment stuff on? What does this depend on? How significant is this? When you open a website optimized for Chrome on Brave, how will it look? It depends of course, I guess my question is: is there anything I wouldn't be able to open? I will use it to work too. I read that, for example, while Brave uses way less RAM than Chrome, it uses more CUP because all websites optimize for Chrome, Brave not so much. Idk about amount of features and customization, although those are secondary.Īlso, power usage. So far what consider to be the best for me is Brave. Edge is one of the best in performance terms for Windows but. No browser so mainstream survives without doing so (right?). So far what I've gathered: Mozilla can be hardened into a fort, no privacy leaks. Above than average features and customization is welcome My preferences: fast, private and secure.

Ive browsed (lol) this a bit and realized i could do much better than Chrome. Amazing thingĮdit 2: Brave is a bit sluggish, enough to be noticed.
