Since currently Lemmy is mostly made up of nerds, I'd like to know what browsers you use and why? You could just upvote the comment with your browser of choice if you don't want to explain.
Firefox. I used to be an avid Chrome user, but the domination of Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi, etc) is scary. It essentially gives Google control over what happens on the internet. So I switched to Firefox and it's been a great browser ever since
Firefox for the past 19 years. No need to change at this point.
Firefox. I've always used Firefox except for services that don't support it (like GeForce Now, which I do have Chrome installed for). I'd say my main reason for sticking with it is wanting to support a more "open web" concept. I also use it on mobile in order to get adblock there and appreciate the browser sync.

Firefox for life unless something better comes along
I've been using Firefox as my main browser since it was called Phoenix. When I was 17 back in 2004 I put up flyers in my hometown to advertise its release. I'm never switching browsers.
Recently switched from brave to Firefox+ublock mobile and PC.
Any list of suggested extensions?
if you use YouTube, deArrow and sponsorBlock.
sidebery to have vertical tree style tabs. use the beta from the GitHub page, they rewrote everything from v4 and v5 and v5 is way better.
Until recently, chrome. Recently I started experimenting with Firefox and qutebrowser.
Vivaldi. I use Firefox too, but I love the mouse gestures and other features.
