Which browsers are best for privacy?

https://privacytests.org rate Brave as the best browser.

I respect the push to use a non-chromium browser, but personally I rely too much on browser tab groups to use anything Firefox based.

Out of interest, are your needs not covered by Simple Tab Groups or Tree Style Tab? Both are monitored by Mozilla as “Recommended Extensions”.

I’ve tried both of those, tree style tabs kinda works, but isn’t ideal. It’s also not an option on mobile at all, and I prefer to use the same browser for mobile and desktop for tab sync/etc.

I used Firefox on desktop and mobile for a few months this past year, but never got as nice of a work flow going as I had with Brave. Then a Firefox update for mobile broke the browser for a week or two (crashed on launch, resetting app data/reinstalling didn’t help) and I went back to Brave, and realized how much I missed tab grouping and some other stuff.

I’m keeping Firefox installed, and I’d be happy to switch back someday if tab grouping gets ported over.
