I use firefox mostly because it's not blink based, and because I've used it all my life, but I also really love the userChrome system even if its hidden behind a flag. Since I use mostly vanilla gnome I use a firefox libadwaita skin [0] that makes it blend in nicely. I used to be jealous of chrome based browsers for their performance but I tried to switch to brave a couple years ago and honestly it doesn't look or feel very nice. Most chromium-based browsers feel the same and its disappointing. If I wasn't as happy with the gnome skin for firefox I'd probably be using Zen [1] because its nice to see a firefox based browser that tries to introduce new features and create an identity of its own instead of joining a size measuring contest on how hard(ened) they are (I respect them, but it's a very saturated market at this point).

In Ask HN: Which web browser are you using and why?
Hello HN! I discovered a cool app and wanted to share it with the community! For those of you using Firefox GNOME theme[0] (or those wanting to try it out :wink:), Add Water makes the whole process of installing and tweaking it much easier. Here are some of its features: - Installs the theme with one click. Updates are automatic - Tweak theme styles (light/dark mode, accent colors, customize the position of some UI elements and more) - (not exactly a feature, but it also supports Firefox variants like Librewolf and Floorp) [0] https://github.com/rafaelmardojai/firefox-gnome-theme
