Guest /u/mobaisland Posted December 8, 2024 Posted December 8, 2024 Hey there, I know this is a common question, but I wanted to ask anyway. I enjoy trying out new browsers, but I always end up back with Chrome. The main reason is that I hesitate to import my data into third-party browsers, especially those maintained by smaller companies. I’ve tried Firefox, but the sync requires a separate account, and as someone who uses all the Google apps (like YouTube and Drive), managing yet another account just for bookmarks and passwords feels like a hassle. I also tried Safari, but it’s pretty slow on my MBA M1 (8GB). Despite being on a powerful machine, it's underwhelming. YouTube performance is frustrating too—despite being a Premium subscriber, I experience lag when trying to fast-forward videos, and the quality drops for a second or two. Also, many apps, like CapCut’s online editor, don’t support Safari. The reason I don’t want to use Chrome is that it’s often criticized for being bloated. People say it has unnecessary components that sit in the background, constantly using up resources. If you want to learn more, there’s a site called chromeisbad.com. Do you have any recommendations for browsers that might work better for me? submitted by /u/mobaisland [link] [comments]
