![]() Some people don't mind having psychology and message conditioning being done on them, they SHOULD have a problem with it, and companies hiding behind "it's the algorithm's fault" to glass over everyone's eyes with math jargon instead of stating it like it is. There is a reason the world is more polarized than ever and it's not because people are any more opinionated or unreasonable, it's because they are being re-enforced on their opinion or the opinion of the group willing to spend the most for the content to show up. Unless you are willing to dig through pages of products or specifically research local businesses or different news outlets etc, they will push the information they want you to see to push your opinion on subjects to one side or the other. This isn't a privacy problem anymore but controlling the ease you can get non-filtered content. So even using duckduckgo, and an ad blocker, and a vpn while using chrome you will still get pushed around to content on sites we use everyday Instagram, YouTube (the primary news source for countless people), Twitter, even Facebook who competes with Google for ads will use data from them to tailor the feed to specific topics and sources. It's not the privacy for everyone who switches away, many people switch because of the targeting and narrowing of their information sources being presented.Įven on the less obvious things like looking up research papers or getting news sources are vastly different depending on the browser and how it's being used. Otherwise, I’ll stay with chrome.Other than for Privacy, why would anyone use anything else than Chrome? If bookmarks and synced bookmarks with desktop is added, then I’ll switch. I think you can technically do that with “my flow” but that just adds something new and more complicated for those types of tasks, at least in my opinion. ![]() I got around that on desktop by just making a new bookmark folder and labeling it “reading list” and putting everything in that, but it’s really inconvenient to not be able to bookmark wherever you leave off on desktop and continue on mobile. It’s a big downside if you do stuff like read manga/webnovels too as it doesn’t have a “reading list” like chrome to keep that stuff separate. It could be that I just missed it, so if it’s there is not in the menu area where it’d make most sense to have it. The mobile version is missing one big key feature, and that’s bookmarks and bookmark syncing with desktop. To me, it’s good enough to convert to on desktop, but not mobile just yet. This is a great browser, it’s easy to navigate and it has the latest news involving games right on the main screen. This is the tech-minded consumer browser right? Give me patch notes. I hate how many apps just do this “bug fixes & improvements” generic note on every single release. When you have many tabs open in the browser, it utilizes somewhat more RAM than Chrome does. It’s about as fast as other popular browsers like Opera, Chrome, or Firefox, which is to say it’s pretty fast. Otherwise I love OperaGX! Oh, and also the release notes need to be actual release notes. The Opera GX browser is a speedy one that opens new tabs in a very short amount of time. There are some additional annoyances here and there but those are the main gripes for now that are causing me to drop it down one star. I should only be able to go “back” to the empty tab page if that tab was opened as a new empty tab. ![]() The back button should be greyed out if I am looking at the first page that was loaded when the tab was formed. People who use the Brave Browser can earn tokens by viewing privacy-respecting ads. I get tripped up sometimes thinking I’m in the wrong tab because of this. Brave Rewards is built on the Basic Attention Token (BAT). I shouldn’t be able to open a new tab right to a page and still be able to hit the back button and be taken to the empty tab page. Second, when a new tab is created as the result of clicking a link or long-pressing on a link to force a new tab then the page that tab was opened to should be the earliest history state for that tab. The number of times I tap and start typing only to realize I’m typing additional characters into the middle of an existing web address is too high. First, when I click into the address bar the entire text should be highlighted by default. For the most part I love this browser but there are a couple quality of life changes that need to happen.
