Are you two literally just astroturfing the same threads? For what I haven't figured out yet, I'm assuming one of you is going to drop a link to a dodgy website at some point.

Chrome all the way. But for backup, I choose edge over Firefox. (I have all three installed though)

8 years ago, my answer would have been "Rockmelt". Missing that bad boy!

I use Chrome mostly since it's much faster than FF. That said I do like FF more for mobile because of adblock and having a better compatibility with video players, I only wish it wasn't so slow.
