I’ve been trying out a bunch of “alternative” browsers based on what I’ve read here, but there’s a couple I haven’t really seen discussed much: Epic and Maxthon browsers. I know you guys will have deets and opinions so let me hear them!

So far, I like Maxthon, but it’s a bit “sign up for an account” which you can bypass but still… I don’t need an account to use a browser, thank you. Otherwise it seems fine. I only just found Epic so I’m still trying that.

Update: I’ve uninstalled Maxthon because it installs AI chatbot uuGPT on my computer without asking.

Care to elaborate on how Epic is not private? It’s whole pitch is about privacy, and I wonder what they’re hiding then.
