Which browser do you use and why?
You're viewing a single thread.
Despite my issues with it, I use Chrome. It's simply too integrated into my life. But I just saw (like 2 minutes ago) from another thread here about Zen Browser and maaaan is it nice.
Zen is good. Arc is decent if you must have a chromium browser for some reason, but not OSS
IMO, if I'm going to jump from Chrome it might as well be for libre/OSS. No reason to just from proprietary to proprietary.
I agree, though there are plenty of situations where you must have a chromium based browser. If it must be a daily driver, Arc is probably better than ungoogled-chromium.
Isn't Zen just a skin of firefox, so the same issues? And Arc is VC funded...

Yes, it seems to use the same engine as Firefox.
But not a fork, right? Sorry I don't understand it clearly.
Zen Browser is a free and open-source fork of Mozilla Firefox, with its main focus being privacy, customizability and design, and it is licensed under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 (MPL 2.0).
Seems to be a fork.
Chromium browsers are affected by any changes to chrome, I wonder if the same is true for Firefox forks.
Simple forks, sure. Independent forks? No. So I guess it depends on if Zen considers itself independent or not, and I can't seem to find that information.
No, because the Mozilla's new policy doesnt apply to forks.
