Ask HN: What's Your Default Browser?

Vivaldi! I just can't get enough of it! It's very customizable, runs great, Chromium engine. I don't think I have ever been this happy with a browser.

As for ads/malicius scripts I rely on ublock orgin.

I’m happy with firefox.

Firefox with tracking protection enabled, uBlock, HTTPS Everywhere, and the Smart Referer plugin

Currently Opera, because of inertia and laziness. Originally I started using it for the free VPN and internet hipsteryness of using a less popular browser (much as I'd like to pretend otherwise, the latter is something my brain finds very appealing). I have a proper VPN setup now, but I've procrastinated switching to Firefox because of the general inconvenience associated with any browser switch and the need to for a minor rewrite on a browser extension I wrote/use.

Chrome

Firefox on laptop and on mobile.

Infact Firefox on mobile is infinitely better as it allows addons. I always setup ublock origin and performance on mobile is even better than desktop.

It is great on laptops too. Just a little bit inconvenienced by 'works only on chrome' websites. That just fuels me more to stick with firefox.

Brave on my home PC and Galaxy S8, Chrome at work (unable to download/install other browsers)

Chrome, with uBLock Origin and privacy badger.

Firefox on desktop; same on on mobile along with Firefox Focus (although recently I started using Firefox Preview a bit more instead of regular FF)
