It is like firefox but before it got silly as it was forked before then (though I did see that cookie silo thing firefox did and that interests me), though still backports patches.

Pretty nippy when all is said and done as it is built to handle cpus people are actually using.
Menu bar if that is a thing you want.
Most of your favourite addons or analogues thereof.
NPAPI addons still a thing, though I am not sure why people would want browser java or flash.

Primarily:
Desktop- Chrome
Android- Firefox
iPad- Safari

I also tend to use other browsers on a case by case basis.

I used to rely on Firefox but they kept breaking extensions. Chrome has it's issues but it's far more 'stable' in terms of extensions.

Main: Firefox + lots of addons. Main ones: uBlock Origin, Stylus, Greasemonkey and Simple Tab Groups.

Backups:
1st - Chrome, especially for SSL certificate shenanigans, where I can bypass errors by typing 'thisisunsafe', and for Google stuff (Spreadsheets, Docs, mail etc.).
2nd - Edge. Since it's there and all.

I've used Waterfox for quite a while, in order to get hose smexy NPAPI addons back (mainly Tab Mix+), but it was just that much slower than Firefox, so I just quit.

Chrome, because it ties all my Google stuff together rather nicely. And ever since v55 it's been much less bloated for me. I ditched Firefox at 3.0, it was just tooooooo bloated. Never looked back, and never been happier.

Plus, Firefox updates kept killing my TamperMonkey scripts, so like... Fuck you, Firefox.

The one I was using has been arrested and being sued by Nintendo...So now I use Atmosphere. :D
I didn't know GaryOPA was a web browser, but sure.

Wait... I get it. I'm an autistic dyslexic, and that really fucked with me.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
