I tried Brave and it felt as fast as Firefox, but the UI for the latter is more customizable. I've also been using Adguard for Desktop to block ads in Ferdium, so I can do without internal adblockers in browsers.

My guess as Microsoft soon doesn't support anymore Windows 8.1 it's likely same the case for Edge, but I haven't read an official statement ;)

For Firefox we got recently information about when will be end of support for Windows 7 and 8.1

  2. Set the Quick Commands feature to Enabled using the menu on the right.
