Hi guys,

Hope everyone is doing good.

Now coming to the topic, as Google Chrome is becoming boring and a resource hog, I decided to try out other web browsers and right now my favorite is Opera. It's because it has a clean interface, built-in VPN and buit-in ad blocker. I tried Firefox and Vivaldi too.

So was thinking which one is your favorite browsers? Please share.

Since you're using Opera hows the speed?

The Builtin VPN and Ad blocker is a plus but not exclusive deal. You can have VPN and Ad blocker by 2 clicks on Chrome as well. I like Chrome since it got good speed compares to Firefox. However, for programming or web development i'd need to switch to Firefox.

I primary browser is Chrome.

The speed of Opera is great, far better than Chrome but it sometimes got stuck in the past when i couldn't go to new URL in new tab. Working fine now.

I guess Firefox compresses the websites because the images and text doesn't look good in it.

As far as your concerns about Ad blocker and VPN, yes i know that we can get that in Chrome too with extension but that's a issue for me that i have to install extensions for these basic services which i basically need, it gets cluttered. Opera offers a private window where it starts private browsing and gives you VPN option which is awesome for me. The only problem i have with Opera for now is in the past i got stuck. I will use for some more time to see if this happens again or it was a temporary glitch.

Google Chrome: For the simple fact that it synchronizes everything using a single gmail account which everyone might already have. Everything from bookmarks to extensions everything gets carried over once i reinstall a fresh copy of chrome.

P.S. I have firefox installed as well, i use it when i am using 2 different proxies at the same time.

UC Browser for phone.

Along with excellent browsing experience, built in ad blocker works perfect.

Chrome for PC.

Chrome although its a resource hog it sometimes becomes very slow so i closes it and re opens it but still prefer it as it is fast and extensions works great too

I was using Firefox from almost 16 years since version 2.0, it had all the features i needed but recently it became pain, i, myself runs many websites, they started giving security errors without any specific reasons, the same website works fine on other browsers.

Moved to Chrome and it was a good decision, it had all the things I needed, Cross device syncing of bookmarks and history, an extensive amount of extensions, LastPass password saving etc etc. Not going back to any other browser.

Make a poll for it.

And if you prefer a light browser then try Opera's Neon.

I personally use Chrome, and it works fine given you have enough RAM. Performance wise no browser comes near it and built in sync with Android devices is a solid plus
