When did you last attempt a replacement of your web browsers? - Xtreme™ - Feb 14, 2020
When you first turn on a new Windows 10 PC or laptop the only route you'll initially have to the internet is via Microsoft’s Edge web browser or Internet Explorer which is then Uninstalled or just left sitting.
Always used Chrome, felt like it was the most user-friendly out of them all.
But I've heard a lot of people out here using brave, opera and firefox.
Just Setting up "Brave" browser as of now, heard it is the best browser out there.
Do you guys have any better suggestions?

Chrome or brave are my options.

I have heard of "Brave", but currently use Firefox. I'll have to look into Brave a little bit more. I know I absolutely can't stand Internet Explorer.

never, I've used chrome forever now and I have no reason to switch really when all my plugins and other stuff is already in chrome

I'm using the new Edge browser, based on chromium. It works really well, it's like chrome but more optimised, and in the next version of Windows 10 is should come pre-installed, meaning that you basically have chrome pre-installed, just a Microsoft version instead of Google.

Chrome is just as bloated and resource-hungry. There’s a reason why Chrome’s lust for RAM has become such a popular meme on the internet (though Google is experimenting with a new feature to limit some of its memory-guzzling)
I also am attached to Chrome but trying something new doesn't hurt ✌

If you have more than 4GB of RAM it shouldn't be a problem. If all else fails use Firefox, or even Opera's GX browser which can limit RAM usage, and it's also based off Chromium.

Yes I have my Rig running with 32Gigz of Ram but I hate to see the Ram usage high on the desktop widget 😆

This is exactly why I stopped using chrome and settled for opera.
Also notes on opera if anyone is interested, you couldn't go wrong using the browser it's pretty lightweight, built in adblock and VPN that you can use in incognito or during normal browsing and haven't seen any DNS leaks when using it.

Nope, I've been using Brave for a few weeks now, and before that, I used Chrome since it's release. I don't think I'll be changing browsers again.

Been using Chrome and will always use it, simple and fast.
