Perhaps one day the internal browser wars will subside, my transit history will persist a single cache, my settings and extensions and preferences will export to a single file…
One can dream… instead there’s…
Firefox
LibreWolf
Chromium
Ungoogled-Chromium
Iridium
Otter
Brave (via linuxulator)
Vivaldi (via ^^)
The first four receive an approximate equal share of my attention. Loader scripts for multi-profile non-Singleton-Locked states, alterations to pixel/dpi scale, de-clutterization, dark-plugins, blockers, ooooooh make it stop

@winterschon@bsd.cafe I would love to use LibreWolf or one of the other Firefox based browsers, but their code base is too old for one of my core add-ons to work. 😞
last time I checked, Librewolf was based on the latest stable version of Firefox available.
@noodlejetski yeah, I’ve since determined that it was the age of my OS, and related repo, which was causing the issue. Tested it on a different machine, with a newer installed OS and it worked just fine.
So I retract my previous statement. 🙂
@toran@mastodon.tjs.is Brave is awesome overall, and at present their sync chain method has been nearly impervious to split-brain conflicts across multiple devices.
Otter browser is ultra minimalist approach, has almost no chrome or aesthetics to alter, which is a benefit and detriment depending on use case. I like using it for single window admin apps (iKVM, iDRAC, PiKVM, etc) due to the lower resource load.
@winterschon@bsd.cafe ta for that. I’ve never really tried Brave sync, to be honest.
That might be something to check out, ta, as I can certainly see a use case for such a minimalist browser! 🙂
