Hey y'all. Thinking about switching browsers. I've used Chrome for 15 years or so. It works fine, I honestly don't care about the tracking. AdBlock extension works great. But I don't like the Ai stuff being forced. I'm okay with Edge as it is pre-installed on my Windows 11 (no complaints on that either), but I don't know if they automatically use Copilot Ai integration. Ideally I would find something that also works on mobile (Samsung, yes I know is built with google OS). I don't care about VPN but occasionally use incognito to keep my search history clear, yes I know it's not actually private and just clears search history. I'm open to VPN as long as it's fast (living in the Great Plains) and free or cheap af.

Thanks for any recommendations.

  • Copilot on Edge Android pretty much works like its Windows sibling, the button is right there, but unless you tap the button Copilot won't respond (no idea whether it still run in the background).

    Personally I prefer Firefox, with uBlock Origin and Dark Reader I get clean webpages that don't sear my eyes.
