Currently I'm using Chrome, but the impending Manifest v3 fiasco made me look at alternatives. A couple of years ago I decided to ditch Chrome and use Firefox, that lasted a year and I moved back simply because of the amount of websites that just didn't look quite right on it (sadly developers are only targeting Chrome).

This time I'm looking into Vivaldi since it uses the Chromium base, has the Opera legacy attached to it, comes with a good ad blocker, which I hope since it's built-in should circumvent the Manifest v3 issue. The only issue I have with it is that it's completely closed source.
