Would have preferred, if MS was determinedbkit- on adopting a pre-existing rendering engine, that MS had adopted Gecko. I think the whole heavy-handed "Blink" dominance (Chromium's Webkit-derived rendering engine) is ultimately a bad thing, if for nothing else, the high security risk of a browser monoculture. If Chromium does something wrong, or ends up with a severe zero-day vulnerability, then a significant proportion of the internet population becomes at risk.
I actually use Waterfox rather than Firefox, mainly because FF broke too many extensions I needed. Generally, I despise Google Chrome. It tends to bring my Linux systems to a near standstill, and have seen that browser crash pages upon startup on MSWindows (multiple machines & MSWin versions). The only reason I'm using the Brave browser is for YouTube, since Google became overly obnoxious with their video-breaking advertising, so I'm cutting off ALL advertising for YT, but still want to support other sites.
