Best chromium browser?
fedilink

I main Firefox but, want a Chromium browser for Android/Windows that I can use occasionally.

What are your preferred choices?

Edit: okay I tested out a lot of your suggestions and found Vivaldi to by my favourite so far :) thanks y’all

If you want something a little different, try arc it doesn’t behave like pretty much any browser I’ve used but it’s certainly a unique take on it

What does arc do different? It’s been very hyped up but I don’t see what it does that vivaldi already does not

It is very different:

  • Tabs are always vertical which is better for todays ultrawide monitors
  • You have the ability to pin tabs to the sidebar which means that whenever you’re on a particular site (not page!) they’re stored in the same place
  • Other tabs are ephemeral, they’re open for at most the 24 hours from when you use them, then they get cleaned away
  • There are separate workspaces; like swappable sidebars that you can use to - for example - keep work and personal tabs separate
  • The vast majority of commands (going to a tab, getting to settings plus loads more) are access via a Stoplight like global search control
  • You can “boost” a particular site and change its style sheet to be different colours - this can be handy if you’re a developer and need to be extra careful when working in a production environment.

That’s just the stuff off the top of my head, there is probably more.

I’m not sure what you mean by “boosting” a site, but vivaldi does have everything besides pinning sites.

So I guess arc is a nice browser but not particularly new.

While ARC is interesting it is available for neither Android or Windows, which was OPs requirements.

It has just been released for windows though
