Firstborn I can do, but you're gonna have to find the soul yourself, no idea where it's bloody gone

I was using Firefox, I used it for years, before that Chrome, I found that for this website I noticed it the most, the loading as I scrolled down, was quite irritating.
I use Microsoft Edge right now, it's Windows 10 only, I think they're still adding to it, but it's a hell of a lot faster than Firefox.

I was a die-hard Firefox user until I started using Chrome, probs gonna stick with it for a while longer until something comes out that really changes my mind. I'm a mac user primarily, and I'm not a massive fan of Safari

Did a bit of research (Google, basically), Chrome is the fastest browser, but when compared to something like Edge the difference is marginal, some may not notice it.

I like the plugins on Chrome. Does Edge have similar functions?

Currently, no. Unfortunate cos I'm so used to having many, I think they may add some when they finish it.

I abandoned chrome about a year ago due to growing concerns over Google's stance on privacy, i.e. that I shouldn't have any.

Yeah, they need to get on that.

That is something that bugs me. I don't entirely trust Google, but I like the browser too much. What do you use now?

Safari on Mac and iOS (which is my main use), Firefox on Windows.

Safari has decent enough plug-ins for my.needs, and it's very fast, with decent features out of the box.

Maybe I should consider switching to Safari. How bad are Google in terms of privacy these days? Is it anything to worry about particularly?

I've disliked Safari for ages, but only because I didn't like its incarnation from like, 7 years ago or something, so it's probably way better these days.

But I do like Adblock and Hola quite a lot (couldn't live without Adblock)

There is ad block on safari, many different ones actually. I personally use Ghostery.

There's nothing specific with Google but their willingness to track and wave everything you do in their silos, which I'd rather opt out of.
