It was my first browser. I used IE to download it.

When I changed computers I did use Chrome for a bit. Then Vivaldi because it was better to me (I liked the split window browsing)

Saw mention that Chrome and all related browsers were about to kill adblockers. Returned home to Firefox immediately.

I don’t feel a need to change right now, but have heard of Waterfox and Librewolf as potential forks. They’re in my mind if I ever feel the need.

Yeah, I used chrome for a good long while but I came back to Firefox when I heard chrome was going to prevent the use of adblock
