I recently switched from Firefox to Arc, which is in closed beta right now. It has a great Tab management. If anyone is interested I can send you an invite :)
Same here with Chrome. I mostly use Firefox for work, but I develop on Chrome because the majority of people use chrome or chromium browsers. I still test on Firefox though.
For me, companies includes Cloudflare, Google, Amazon and Meta, and my primary goal is anonymity to them (rather than security). So no, Tor and Tor Browser is not overkill for these companies.
I was looking for private browsers, and found myself astonished at how the market is saturated in Chromium-based browsers, and how every website seems to only support theses browsers, so I had to accept that Chromium will be all there is until a new big thing appears, and wound up finding a Chromium fork that seems to remove all google aspects from it. I've had to tweak a few things but the experience has been very smooth so far.

Outside of Google blocking some of their websites from Firefox (the only one I can think of currently is Stadia Bluetooth Mode), which websites do you find that only support Chrome? I haven't found any.
Vivaldi, mostly because of the “quick commands” keyboard navigation. Opens an Alfred / Spotlight style input, type what you want and jump right to that feature or toggle or website or whatever. Love me some good keyboard based nav. Definitely one to check out for anyone used to working a lot with Sublime.
I'm trying to get into Vivaldi - I'm really liking it so far, love the stacking tabs and tiling. I've heard some bad reviews about tabs and workspaces disappearing after updates, however.
If it doesn't go well, I'll probably go back to chrome and Firefox. Plus edge for bing I guess
I just recently switched to Arc, and it is soo good. Really changing my workflow for the better. So nice to experience a product where people have opiniated ideas about how something can be done differently. It might not be for everyone, but damn its something for me.
Loving Arc! I kinda like how it doesn’t really make a distinction between tabs and favorites, and at the same time I kinda don’t.
Do you have a solution for links you want to have access to someday but don’t really want as pinned tabs or favorites? I have some pinned tab folders at the moment, but I don’t love that solution. I’ve used Pinboard in the past but, 1) I feel like that product is dying and 2) I’d like tighter browser integration.
Safari has actually been a decent experience for me since I joined the golden cage a few months back. It really just works (most of the time™️), as do allmost things Apple. Lack of support for some modern web technologies is rather off-putting, though...
I have changed browser maybe every five or so years, whenever I had issues with the one I'm using. I've been back on Firefox as primary for a couple of years now.
Using Orion on iOS currently (there’s a macOS version too). It’s made by the same people behind the Kagi search engine. I’m loving it. Built with WebKit and on mobile it utilises some power saving feature Safari does not.
They plan to release a Windows version eventually too, and using WebKit! (Not Chromium).
Firefox is my browser for life, but I use a lot of them depending on the context. Chromium has very good dev tools that I need for my work. Safari has good battery performance on macOS laptops. Arc has some nifty new ideas.
