Chose Google Chrome
Firefox has a clunky update mechanism. Although Firefox was pretty quick, I did not care for the look of it. Opera was not as compatible nor as fast as Google Chrome. Tor is slow but is used only for private browsing as needed.
Vivaldi Browser
Chose Vivaldi Browser
Vivaldi Browser was the best options for a Chromium browser that was fast, customizable and doesn't eat up too much RAM memory

Multiple incognito windows are easily and effortlessly generated at will. This browser easily handles 30 tabs without a huge resource drain. Generally all banking and testing sties are compatible with Google Chrome now, so near 100% compatibility with all locations on the web. Like Franks Hot Sauce, I use Google Chrome on everything!

It's a light and customizable browser, but it sometimes lacks stability. It happened to me that I lost a few hours of work due to random crashes on a 2018 MacBook.

Cons
  • Not about Chrome per se, but Google search is fast losing relevance and Gemini AI results are useless more than half the time. If search and information gathering moves to other paltforms, then eventually the reasons I open Chrome will reduce

Usability
Ease of use and functionality is unmatched. Some of the functionality reduces on a Macbook, for example, when I can't use the windows shortcut Alt + Tab to switch between windows. I use multiple profiles on Chrome - a personal and a work profile, and Windows makes it very easy to switch between the two. Still, I've been a user for 10+ years, and I see nothing that matches the functionality, integrations across apps and devices, ease of use and the deeply entrenched habits.

Vivaldi Browser is great in terms of usability and customization, if you don't like something the way it is by default, there's a good chance that you can tweak to make it work for you

Alternatives Considered
Firefox has a bulky and clunky design over Chrome. I didn't do a comparative test but it felt like Chrome was faster and I've never seen/ tested android compatibility from firefox. Safari seems to want to control my browsing activity as opposed to allowing me to control my browsing activity and the same points as above also apply - clunky boxy design, and I get a feeling of slow speed. Plus I use Gmail, GDrive, Google Keep Notes, almost on a daily basis and Safari makes it difficult to use those.

  • Quick debug for web applications. Chromium devtools are the best.
