Try the Fasterfox addon and set it to the Ultra setting, it speeds up Firefox a lot.

You forgot Edge. I haven't used it but I hear it's actually pretty good.
I used Firefox for a long time, switched to Chrome for a while then back to Firefox when I realized how much of a RAM hog Chrome was (also, I missed my addons)
Opps,thanks ill be sure to add that to the poll

Vivaldi or Waterfox (or Palemoon in the rare case a computer is 32 bit) on computers, Safari on my phone.

Does it have good adblock, script blocking and web debugging, via plugins is fine? If so then I will probably be able to use it. [...]
Practically it means something firefox based (pale moon is doing what needs doing on the main machine) as I have not found a suitable replacement for adblock, noscript and firebug.
Pretty much this on PC and Mobile, except I'm not enough of a masochist to use noscript. I hope Electrolysis brings some users back to the greatness.

Though I would not install it for general people and used to favour ghostery for them (these days I mainly go with adblock) it is not that bad as long as you avoided crap sites like the gawker family. That said you combine with requestpolicy (another plugin that allows you to whitelist in this case external requests from sites) and you can get some fun going on.

TBB - I use it for the security from time to time or when I need to overcome firewalls with public wifi
Chrome - I use it a lot for the speed it has
Firefox - I use it for the customization and add-ons (AdBlock+NoScript+HTTPSeverywhere+PrivacyBadger)
Midori - I use it in case all else fails

Yes, its slow and laggy but it is continues to grow and improve, speed will probably increase someday. That's why I prefer it for a private browser. :)
Plus that is the problem with the Tor network not the browser. Plus you can use it for I2P if you want.
Also how does it prevent DMCA reports? I have never seen someone get one from a direct download (which you should not do if it is a large file on Tor)

I mainly use Chrome on my desktop so i can sync everything with my phone and tablet. On my 10-years-old laptop, instead, i use Firefox, since if i would use Chrome, its RAM would implode as soon as i open two tabs...

    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
