Chrome vs. Firefox vs. Edge in 2026

A new election is needed with detailed choices (choice 4 to be split into several ones).
Indeed, I use 5 browsers, but I consider them like apps, we are not in 90s anymore.

I need to know the relative frequncy of using each of the browsers included collectively under choice number 4.
That is hard to tell, people generally respond to a main browser. I use my screen as 50:50, like Youtube/Edge or Streaming/FB. We do not talk about TOR. 🤫

I cannot use split screen or even vertical tabs
Well I have only one eye, so even 24" monitor is too big for me, but I sit pretty close, so it will do.

Cookies exceptions were supposed to fix that, but Edge is currently all or nothing. 😩

Let's say I logged into a site and decided I don't want to delete its cookies when I exit my browser. If I add that site into the save cookie on exit Edge policy before closing my browser, will my cookie for that site remain safe or be deleted when I close my browser? Does the policy come in effect even when Edge is running or do I have to close it at least once for the new policy to take effect?
Same question for @Sampei.Nihira and Chrome.

Theoretically, if you only set the first policy (obviously with cookies_and_other_site_data + exception for a specific cookie in settings, it should be the same.

But usually policies override the rules in settings.
If this is also the case in Edge, you need to configure two policies.

You have to try it.

P.S.

Personally, I never save even a single cookie when I close my browser.

P.S.1

I hadn't read the next question carefully.
The policy is active (OK) when it is reloaded; you can see it in Edge://policy.

I'm not a multi-tasker.
Well men generally are not. 😁
And that is saying something, men and women use Windows and browsers differently. But it is never taken into an account, but to be fair, I have never seen women around.

Men are high-performance single core, single thread cpu.
 
As a surprise, Yandex is the only browser which applies "delete cookies on exit" properly for me.
Because Yandex safely stored the copies on their servers. 🤣
Strange, are you sure?:unsure:
Yes. I have a list of websites whose cookies and site data shouldn't be deleted. After lenghty browsing session and exiting the browser, these websites are still present on the list, along tens of others that aren't on the exceptions list. It clearly says 1 cookie is saved with the storage part empty.

I didn't report the issue to Mozilla because I don't see the point. Won't get fixed either way. 🤷🏻‍♂️
