    That’s in your head. I cannot think of anything Firefox won’t do for me. And if I came across something I needed chromium for, I would open it that one time. My privacy is worth that tiniest bit of effort.

    As an independent computer consultant full time, I operate heavily through my browser for a good 60% of my work.

      The ability to send tabs to my phone or desktop at will is enough for me. Firefox always.

      For me, there are a few plugins that don’t exist on Firefox, which I need. The plugin environment isn’t nearly as robust or kept up-to-date as chromium-based browsers.

            Fair enough. That’s a fairly niche case, but I could see myself using a chromium browser if I had to use this tool at work, but then switching back to Firefox for everything else.

            I still wouldn’t use Brave, though, and it would be even better if more developers started supporting Firefox instead.

              I agree. I guess I could just use Firefox on mobile and home but use Brave for work.

        I’d be interested to hear which plugins you are referring to as my experience with Firefox has been much the opposite. I often find the plug-in selection lacking when required to use a Chromium based browser.

      Tabs folders on Android is a big reason to use Brave instead of Firefox. Tab management is way better. Not some habit. Straight facts. But Firefox has different benefits. F.E. multiple search engines to use in search bar.

        Tab folders became such a nuisance for me on Chrome Mobile I started using Firefox. I keep only 5-6 tabs open at a time, webpages opening in the same tab group thing was just too confusing for my very lean tab management mind. Now my 5 tabs really had “9 tabs”.

          Firefox tab management is way simpler. It can be good for some people. But sometimes I miss good tab management support in Firefox.

          Yup. Cromite is also a very good option. Good to see legacy of Bromite is not lost.

        I really like Vivaldi’s tab management on Android myself. It’s more desktop like.
