Advice Request Number of Web Browsers installed on your PC?

[Ink]

Other than Internet Explorer and legacy Microsoft Edge...

• What other web browsers do you have installed? And why?

Seen a few ways to do from using shortcut flags to about flags but probably best one is the following Display settings -> Graphic settings -> Choose an app to set preference: Classic App -> Browse -> Firefox.exe (Brave in your case) -> Firefox (Button that appears below the browse button) -> Options. I then chose Power Saving which makes your browser use the iGPU. High Performance would make the browser use your dedicated GPU.
better then any other alternative since an update won't break it, unlike every other workaround.

It worked

It worked

Can't imagine using the GPU browsing in college.
Btw did you try undervolting for some extra battery life and less noise?

 

[SeriousHoax]

I have 2.

1. Firefox - Primary
2. MS Edge - Secondary

Overall Firefox performs much better and smooth on my laptop. Chromium browsers hardware acceleration doesn't cope well with my system and create rendering lag while switching tabs which is quite surprising. Turning it off improves things but that puts a bit extra pressure on the CPU and lags on some rare GPU dependent sites.

I remember really liking Vivaldi UI but had performance/ stability issues with them.
Maybe will give it another try.

I liked Vivaldi, but they're bloating the browser with unneeded features, which makes it not only heavier but has more attack vectors.

4 and I bounce between all of them, not just compartmentalization, I can’t pick only one.
Firefox
Edge (chromium)
Chrome
Brave

 

[ForgottenSeer 85179]

Edge (Chromium), Chrome and Firefox. Will be uninstalling Chrome later today and will be replacing Edge with Brave (as my primary browser) once it updates to 83.

[YuanJiawj]

• Microsoft Edge (Chromium)
• Firefox (Default browser)

 

[Chuck57]

Edge Chromium. And I never thought I would ever use an MS browser again.

Voted 3.
Edge Chromium - main browser
Brave - secondary
Firefox - not really using it, just checking the new releases and the forget about it until next major release

Might try Vivaldi soon.
