Browsers

There are so many browsers. Usually people either stick with Chrome, Safari, or Microsoft Edge/Explorer. However, there is much more out there, of course. I've used Firefox, Brave, and now Vivaldi. They each require customizations and various tweaks to get used to. Especially that everything now is being geared as web-friendly (which I would have loved to have 7 years ago as a power-Chromebook user), the need for a good browser is essential. Here is a growing list of browsers.
