Recently there’s been several discussions on different web browsers here on HN and after reading the "AdNauseam Banned from the Google Web Store" discussion [1] I wanted to ask you, dear HN community, what’s your favourite browser and why? Would be also interesting to hear if you have a default browser but are rooting for a new up-and-coming-but-not-quite-there-yet browser.

I, for one, am always on a looking for new browsers to try out. Currently using Firefox (for FB, Linkedin and Gmail), Chrome for Youtube and Safari for everything else [2].

In addition to usual suspects such as Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera I’m listing here a few alternative browsers from previous HN discussions:

Blisk, a browser for web developers - https://blisk.io/

Ōryōki Web Browser - http://oryoki.io/

A smarter web browser - https://minbrowser.github.io/min/

Brave - a browser from the co-founder of Mozilla Brendan Eich - https://brave.com

Vivaldi by the co-founder Opera - https://vivaldi.com
