Windows Recall remains controversial a year after its announcement. Now, the Brave browser has taken new measures to "protect" users from the feature.

        Sure I use that too but you should have at least one chromium based browser for certain features though.

          Vivaldi? (Sort of continuation of Opera, run by it’s former CTO.)

            Vivaldi is OK, but I would replace it with something else. It’s a pretty busy UI and I have had issues with it freezing in Fedora 42 KDE.

            This is my setup, and I never actually use ungoogled chromium.

            If I have some kind of issue that I need to work around immediately rather then figure out, I usually just open Firefox and try that.

          I personally haven’t had to use a chromium browser for anything yet since my swith to Firefox. Only to test a render bug in chromium that Google hasn’t bothered to fix in over 9 years for a case that works correctly in every other browser.

            Yes some tools do not work with Firefox. It‘s a niche but I‘ve run into it a few times just recently. For example with a gamepad enabler tool where Firefox simply won‘t be able to see your USB input.
