Firefox because the a) I don't like the Chrome monoculture which is everything else there
Zen as backup.
Brave as third backup but every time I launch it, I'm asked to turn on the crypto ads that are default in everyone's favorite browser for whatever reason.
I wish Firefox could just stay the course. Their new CEO sounds like a compulsive moron who needs to be kicked in the crotch multiple times. But for now I'm still there.

I see a lot of reference to Zen Browser. It looks great, I like the organization features, and it's FOSS. But what about plugins? There are a few plugins that I use that aren't directly related to making the browser behave that I use constantly. Proton Pass is a good example. It looks as if the plugin space is lacking so far, but the benefits may actually outweigh this shortcoming.

FF was always the browser of my choice. For decades now. And will be, if only US will not brake or block it for EU(chances are so close to zero...). But I also like Vivaldi, so it will be backup plan...

When I was on Windows, I mostly used Brave until I learned it was supporting crypto stuff. When I switched to Linux, I started with Firefox and now use Vivaldi in parallel. I need to do a deeper dive into Librewulf and Waterfox to see which will replace Firefox for me.

Haven't found the perfect browser yet.
Tried Vivaldi but after a while a bug showed up preventing me from connecting to my work vdi. Lost trust in it.
Tried Firefox but Outlook Web which I unfortunately use at work doesn't work most of the time. Also it has got a few other annoyances.
Have considered Librewolf but it doesn't have an android version - I sync bookmarks.
Ended up with Brave, which as a bonus automatically removes annoying cookie popups.
