Let’s be honest, none of them compare to Chrome for many different reasons. Might be UI, or data syncing, or one of any other reasons. Given the opportunity to switch or patch chrome, I’d patch chrome.
Yes, I mean if I don’t like the mobile app, I can’t switch on pc and leave mobile on chrome and expect those two to sync between them (Firefox on pc and Chrome on mobile) so I’m forced to swotch both.
What the fuck? Can you sync chrome to edge and edge to opera? What kind of bad faith bullshit ass argument are you trying to pull here?
You’re claiming that you cant sync data on Firefox, when you absolutely can. Then you claim that what you meant was that you cant cross browser sync on multiple devices. Well congratufuckinglations, you can’t on any other browser either.
What’s wrong with you? Are you unable to read my comment, or is it comprehension problems?
I’m saying if I switch to Firefox, I have to switch it on both PC and mobile, but I hate the UI on mobile. I can’t leave one as Chrome (mobile) and the other as Firefox (PC) and expect them to work together (sync). Thus, I’d rather stock to Chrome because the ui is better.
Are there any semi-popular alternative browsers still based on WebKit? I thought most of them like Brave and Vivaldi were based on Chromium’s Blink rather than WebKit.
Technically not really, I just said WebKit to avoid breaking down the whole fork situation in my comment. Blink isn’t that different in reality so, WebKit for simplicity. Safari and Chrome are much closer to one another than Firefox is to either, so 🤷♂️
This won’t change your mobile experience, but on desktop this makes Firefox absolutely gorgeous. I’ve been using it for at least a year now and it still blows me away every time I happen to see the stock UI.
I literally don’t know what people who say this mean. It looks totally modern, almost identical to the chrome and edge UIs, it’s fully customizable, and there are thousands of extensions to alter the appearance in a single click, not to mention custom css styling if you want complete control.
It’s the UI, and how long it took them to finally get tab folders as an example. They’re always playing catch-up.
Plus, the mobile app ui is terrible, and I can’t run FF on desktop and chrome on mobile and sync items between the two, so a switch to FF means a switch on all devices. I really want to but I always navigate back to chrome.
How is the mobile app terrible? I’ve been using it for years with no issues, and it has many extensions that chrome on Android doesn’t allow like adblocking.
The tabs in FF are great, for years now FF has been much better at handing huge accounts of passive tabs, and there are tons of extensions to provide any functionality you could want.
I guarantee you if you just install a few extensions that you like and use it for a week you won’t even notice any more.
Time to “revamced” chrome next and patch that out.
There are a ton of other WebKit based browsers to choose from! Safari, Vivaldi, Brave… not to mention good old Firefox and Gecko!

Firefox has had data sync for a long ass time.
Yes, I mean if I don’t like the mobile app, I can’t switch on pc and leave mobile on chrome and expect those two to sync between them (Firefox on pc and Chrome on mobile) so I’m forced to swotch both.
I mean… yes? If you’re saying that Chrome sucks now, then why would you want to switch on some platforms but not others?
The mobile app is great.

Vivaldi and Brave use Blink (Chromium), not WebKit
They are practically the same thing.
firefox!!!
firefox and ublock origin has existed all along cmon, ditch that spyware already whats the holdup
My problem with Firefox comes down doley to the ui. I just can’t get over the blocky mess it is, but I really would switch otherwise.

ive been using it for a while and its always looked like a carbon copy of every other browser and vice versa
There’s only so much you can do on a mobile browser to be fair, they all look the same
