@jla@typo.social What do you use, out of curiosity? (Given the nature of my work, I think it’s good for me to use the browser users use most commonly, hence Chrome.)

@mwichary@mastodon.online @jla@typo.social Just use a web browser and test in the rest. The Firefox based ones should be fine (and gets you the largest alternative on desktop). Webkit based browsers are the only ones on iOS mobile, so not testing there is neglecting where a likely huge portion of users are (depending on your userbase). Chrome is kind of a superset of the web, so I would personally say you are better off with something that does less.

@mwichary@mastodon.online For work and everyday tasks: Firefox, synchronized across Apple/Microsoft devices. For project-based testing and for sites that aren’t compatible with FF, I might open Safari, Edge, or Brave (as a Chromium-based browser), but their use is strictly limited to these cases.
