Any Specific reason for Not using chrome? cyberfox and waterfox are Firefox variants while vivaldi is chrome based. 

So, if you want to use firefox based, go for Cyberfox, and Vavaldi for chrome based.

Those thing you mentioned depends on Internet (latency) so you need to check that too, as well as you need Ad-block/Flash-block etc plugins in your Browser.

They must have a crappy web design then.

 

Cyberfox and Waterfox are basically "optimized" Firefox builds - I see no reason not to use the official Firefox over these, IMO. Comodo's IceDragon is derived from Firefox, with more focus on security. Vivaldi is a Chromium-based browser, with additional features and enhancements.

 

Out of the four listed, I'd use Vivaldi. Otherwise, I'd try to figure out why Chrome doesn't work with the site in question (assuming it's broken due to an ad-blocking/anti-script extension or something like that)... or better yet, report to the site's web designers that their website doesn't work too well in Chrome.

Some are incompatible with certain plug-ins or extensions - the current version of Waterfox has issues with the IDM extension (also current) for example - which is why I am running the x64 version of Firefox (not Waterfox) at present.

Real Chrome or Firefox, the rest are IMO a waste of the little HDD space you use for them 

 

And stop going to sites that don't work in modern browsers, there's no reason any site would not work in Chrome, for consumers, other than bad web design 

Here is what I gathered while skimming over this thread:

"I am blaming my browser because I dont know how things work - and I have to blame something"

Oh - when someone says "ad blocker" - dont interpret that as Ad-Block, ABP, Ad-Block Plus - just use "ublock by origin"

    • Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features by Fiza Ali Samsung is bringing its Galaxy XR headset to the UK several months after the device made its debut as the first headset built on Google's Android XR platform. The headset was first teased in late 2024 alongside Google's introduction of Android XR before making its commercial debut in 2025. Developed in collaboration with Google and Qualcomm, Galaxy XR combines mixed reality experiences with Gemini-powered AI features, allowing users to interact with digital content using voice, gestures, and visual inputs. While the hardware itself remains largely unchanged from the version Samsung unveiled last year, the company is using the UK launch to spotlight several software enhancements that have arrived through recent updates. Among the most notable additions is deeper integration with Google's ecosystem. Galaxy XR users can explore destinations through Google Maps' Immersive View, receiving AI-powered recommendations and contextual information from Gemini while navigating virtual environments. Furthermore, entertainment experiences have also expanded; users can watch 180-degree and 360-degree videos on YouTube, browse spatial content converted into 3D, and ask Gemini questions about on-screen content without interrupting playback. Samsung is also highlighting mixed-reality features such as Circle to Search, which allows users to identify real-world objects through hand gestures while using the headset's video pass-through mode. Another feature automatically converts photos and videos into spatial 3D experiences. Moreover, the headset now also supports Android Enterprise, allowing organisations to manage deployments using existing Android management tools. Annika Bizon, Vice President, Product and Marketing, Mobile Experience, Samsung UK & Ireland, talked about the device, stating: The headset is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 platform and features dual 4K Micro-OLED displays. The tech giant says that users can expect up to 2.5 hours of battery life. Samsung also confirmed that Galaxy XR will continue receiving software and security updates as the company works alongside Google and Qualcomm to expand the Android XR ecosystem. Galaxy XR is now available for pre-order and will go on sale on 8 July. Customers interested in trying the headset before launch can visit Samsung KX in London and selected Samsung Experience Stores from 17 June. Finally, the company will also host a livestream on 19 June showcasing the headset's capabilities and answering questions from prospective customers.
