Chrome for desktop and phone - I disliked firefox since it felt much slower in terms of loading websites.

Weird because on my phone or Desktop it loads very fast.
 
Yandex cause I support my fellow slavic brothers/sisters

Plus I like their services without being under the watchful eye of NSA and Google.

Russian browser, interesting - - not NSA watched but maybe FSB has an eye on/in it :rolleyes:

I mean, they both are based on Chromium in the end...

Fine by me, I am not in Russia, but in Canada, we can be affected quite easily due to eavesdropping from authorities. I and my family have had real world experience in this and it wasn't fun.

So FSB can go right ahead and gain all the knowledge about what porn I watch and how many times I have listened to the theme song to Convoy. Not like it bothers me.

Yes and No. It takes most source code from Chromium but also from Opera too.

I agree - I do not think that they care about ordinary people like us anyway....it is more the principle

Its a pain in the rear if CSIS knocks on your door and asks you if your grandmother was a communist sympathizer. Funny enough we told them to dig her up and ask her themselves.

Mind you, that was the 80's. But it left a bad taste in my mouth. Since then, we try to keep private whatever we can. Not that we are hiding anything. Not that I am hiding anything. But its just that I don't feel comfortable that someone that can affect me knows my political stance on things.

Plus I don't want advertisements showing up everywhere for performance enhancements.
 
Chrome for main browser, and portable firefox, portable slimjet, and portable chrome too

Really depends on the phone and specs and course the version of Android or iOS
 
Microsoft Edge since updating to Windows 10. It hasn't given me any reason to change.

Well, her father was Cossack and he was executed, so her answer would have been a firm "No" if asked if she was a communist or communist Sympathizer.

On topic though;

I have not had a single issue yet with Yandex Browser. I would use Firefox in the past till I caught wind (dunno if true or not) that George Soros is affiliated with Firefox and figured I wont use anything that supports that dirtbag.
 
What you use before?
Internet Explorer and still do on occasion. I have IE11 set to high security mode so JavaScript is forbidden.
 
That is just way too much money for a lawsuit :wtf:

The new Firefox is super fast at loading.
 
I use Chrome Canary, never had an issue with it, and I like having the latest updates first.
 
That's what I have but the Verizon model :ohwell: going to switch once 2yr contract is over

I guess it loads depending on how fast is your internet connection, 3G/LTE?
