  • the answer is 1

  • it’s Firefox

  • Vivaldi is supporting for less than a year (June 2025 it stop) and edge is unclear but may support it simultaneously (at least for now). Brave has “partial support” which means it may as well not and they’ve left a “lot of wiggle room” to drop support in their statement.

If you want to keep using ublock origin, get Firefox. You should just get Firefox because it’s the best browser for privacy/not using chromium in general and it works well.

i don't know why people are so allergic to firefox but it is the answer.

its the only halfway decent answer. install firefox and switch to it.

I love Firefox, used to use it all the time. Now it's slower on Ubuntu than Brave. I mean slow as in irritating to use, click and wait.

Then something must be wrong with the way you configured your OS.

To which I offered a possible answer. Does everyone have misconfigured operating systems?

Mozilla’s Firefox browser isn’t known for speed. It falls into last place in most of our tests for Windows and Mac, and that’s okay. Firefox is more about security features than speed, which is ideal if you’re more concerned about blocking malware than loading pages in a flash.

Yep, I'd probably be wasting my time going down the uninstall-reinstall rabbit hole and would probably not find speed increases.
