Edge isn't a bad browser. However it's based on Chromium so using it just feeds into the Chromium monopoly.

Firefox or Safari is the only way.

I tried switching to Firefox some weeks ago but deinstalled it immediately after realising that it's DNS doesn't work. My ISP is censoring some ๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ websites and I can only visit them by not using my ISP's dns service.

No matter which DNS i selected in the browser settings I always got an error saying that Firefox couldn't reach the DNS. I will stick to Opera GX now ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Edit: it's funny how the butthurt Firefox users downvote me for just talking about my experience with the browser.

Sounds like a typical layer 8 issue to me ๐Ÿค”

The same DNS settings work in Opera GX, which means the problem is made by Mozilla

Okay listen... i fully support you in your choice to use the browser that works for you without spending time troubleshooting. But why Opera GX?
