Tor Browser

Add Video or Image

Top Pro

Access hidden .onion sites

Top Con

Does not guarantee perfect anonymity unlike what most users would expect

nooblinux's Experience

If you understand how to use it and especially how to not use it can anonymise you See More

Specs

Based On:Firefox ESR

License:OpenSource (MPL-2.0)

Browser Engine:Gecko

Default Search Engine:DuckDuckGo

Top Pro

Provides anonymity

Tor Browser routes traffic through the Tor network and deletes all privacy sensitive information (such as the browsing history or cookies) at the end of each session. Additionally, it encrypts all traffic. See More

Top Con

Extremely slow

Caused by the tor network the browser depends on. See More

ProudZaoJun's Experience

Tor is based on Firefox which is not secure. There is a difference between security and privacy. See More

Top Pro

Tor sets the standard for safe and private browsing

If you follow their instructions religiously, Tor is the nec plus ultra in terms of safety and privacy. For the time being at least. See More

Top Con

Must adapt new browsing habits

It is not recommended to do several things on TOR browser that users would want to do in a normal browser, such as visiting social networks and banking. See More

CourageousRohe's Experience

Privacy and Security are not the same. Firefox is not secure at all. See More

Top Pro

NoScript and HTTPS Everywhere installed by default

Top Con

Not made as your daily browser

It does not support many modern features due security and is pretty slow. See More

AwesomestGunAna's Experience

Tor's security is weak compared to Google Chrome. See More

Top Pro

Portable

Can be installed and run on a portable device such as a USB stick. See More

Top Con

You will hang on every recaptcha

You will stuck on Recaptcha in the browser because the sites think you are a robot. Which can be very annoying because the images mostly will fade out very slow when you click them or you have to make 8 general puzzles at a row and then it says ''Please try again'' See More

AwareNuwa's Experience

Tor Browser ruined my life and exposed me to bad things. See More

Top Pro

Free and open source

Top Con

Weak Sandboxing

Firefox's sandboxing is inferior to Chrome's and it does not contain site isolation. See More

JoyfulLadon's Experience

I have used it for 10+ years off and on. If used with a quality VPN, It's about as private as you can get for a standard user. It's been very, very easy to use for awhile now. I used to use the advanced one 7+ years ago and you had to go through numerous steps to make it more private. I would just use it every 6 months just so I didn't forget the steps. For brand new users, be aware it is noticeably slower than a standard browser experience and there is no way around that since it hops around 3 times before it reaches you, more if you also use a VPN. I highly recommend for regular website viewing. It's been years since I've used an actual .onion address, the true dark web but when I did, wow was it slow. But cool that the technology exists. See More

Top Pro

Relatively fast

Top Con

Based on Firefox and not Chrome

Firefox is much less secure than Chrome. Mozilla is years behind Google in terms of adding security features. See More

HonorableBirrahgnooloo's Experience

TOR rocks See More

Top Pro

The only browser package which includes a gateway built-in into TOR a network where you can actually browse the web completely anonymously

Privacy. It's fundamental. And this browser has enabled and keeps enabling people to lookup things they don't want their ISP/ government or surveillance marketers to see. And what's better they won't know a thing about what you searched. What is visible to the outside world however is the fact: you make use of TOR and probably the TORBrowser this client / citizen of ours is using TOR to obfuscate his /her traffic (=~anonymize ). See More

Top Con

Illegal

Accessing the hidden wiki or any other content on the dark web is illegal and people have even been imprisoned for this. See More

Top Pro

Legal

As long as your not using it for illegal purposes, it's 100% legal. See More

Top Con

Dangerous

Hackers may insert something illegal onto your computer and get you arrested. See More

Top Con

Open Source

Anyone can hack the source code and insert malware. See More

Top Con

Potentially illegal

Brave

Add Video or Image

Top Pro

Safety and privacy well taken care of

Things like https everywhere and no tracking are standard with Brave. In most other browsers, things like these are optional at best. See More

Top Con

Sync issues

Unable to sync extensions, no cloud sync (only device sync). See More

IntuitiveUmay's Experience

One thing I would say is that since it incorporates the #1 safe and secure TOR Browser in it's private searches, it is the best browser to use. See More

Specs

Based On:Chromium core

License:OpenSource (MPL)

Browser Engine:Blink

Top Pro

Now supports Chrome Webstore

It's now a faster, less intrusive Chrome. See More

Top Con

Hypocritical/deceptive stance on privacy and advertisement

Brave is advertised as a browser that respects your privacy and blocks ads while still supporting content creators. However, at the same time the company is making deals with Facebook, Twitter and others to whitelist their trackers and ads. See More

Ian James's Experience

Very fast web browser that really does cut down on ads. I find it to be faster than Chrome, and feel safer using it. Great browser! See More

Top Pro

Faster than Google Chrome

Brave consistently beats Chrome in speed, might have to do with less tracking being run in the background. See More

Top Con

Same security-holes as Chrome

On the desktop: Brave uses the same browser engine as Chrome, meaning it has the same security-holes as Chrome. Chrome is a big target for hackers (being the most popular browser in the world), and a webpage that will hack Chrome may also hack Brave. However, Brave has security features that Chrome doesn't (such as a built-in adblocker). Those features will stop many hacking attempts. See More

CourageousXamanEk's Experience

Not bad 6 of 10 * See More

Top Pro

Built-in adblock

Contains an optional "Allow Brave Acceptable Ads", so you can support the site you truly enjoy. See More

Top Con

Bloatware Cryptocoin BAT Extension

JoyfulLadon's Experience

I use Brave standard, Beta and Dev build on my Win10 laptop and have been using it more and more lately. I really like that it has Chrome Webstore extension support. Also use it on my iPhone, I like that it has FaceID option. Will make an easier transition away from Chrome as it has been using way too many of my laptops 12gb RAM resources, granted use many browsers at once and other apps. Chrome is usually the one where my HD and CPU is being used A Lot. Unlike Chrome I can run all Brave browsers at the same time and if I close one the other one or ones keep on running and don't all close like Chrome. Just tried out the Brave TOR option tonight really quick and it seemed to work ok, usually use Tor browser on my laptop for this. See More

Top Pro

Very fast

The fastest browser out there. See More

Still dependent on Google

Since it's based on Chrome. See More

AssertiveMimir's Experience

Top Con

Can be accessed with an extension. See More

OrganizedIxtab's Experience

I was very well pleased with Brave browser. A new, fresh browsing experience. Love the home page graphics. Clean, stylish. I regret reading a negative comment from a former user and let that make me paranoid enough to uninstall. Lesson learned. Research instead of blindly letting negative views persuade my decisions. Will be reinstalling very soon! See More

Top Pro

Tor is available right in the browser

Top Con

Adds its own referall codes to your links

Power hungry, uses much more battery power than other browsers

Per default Brave enables hardware acceleration which results in a much higher energy (battery) consumption than the most other web browsers. See More

Top Pro

Developed by creator of Mozilla and Javascript

Top Con

Dumbed down in the latest versions

In previous versions, Brave felt more like Firefox. Now it's been dumbed down, it feels more like Chrome/Chromium. For example: There's no menu-bar. And when you install Brave, it just installs - it doesn't give you any options on how to install it. See More

Top Pro

Option to pay supported sites based on view time percentage

Set up automatic micro-donations. Brave will automatically divide a monthly donation among the top sites you visit. And/or, you can decide which sites get what percentage of your donation. It’s called pinning. See More

Top Con

The iPhone version has some odd behavior

On reopening Brave often returns to the "search results" page, rather than the webpage that was previously browsed to from the search results page. Might just be a configuration issue though. See More

Top Pro

Built-in adblocking

Other apps make it difficult to block ads without rooting your phone or going through unoptimized add-on stores, but Link Bubble blocks them out of the box, making browsing much less crowded. Contains an optional "Allow Brave Acceptable Ads" So you can support the site you truly enjoy. See More

Top Pro

Takes care of privacy and security

Top Pro

Sensible defalults with a clean ui/menus

Top Con

Unreliable

Top Pro

Sandboxing

It's sandboxing is the same as Chromium and by far superior to Firefox See More

Top Con

Difficult to install

AwesomestGunAna's Experience

Ungoogled Chromium is not secure because it's binaries are not reproducible and it is not updated like Google Chrome. It also disables Google Safebrowsing, which protects users from dangerous websites. See More

Top Pro

Free Software

100% Free and Open Source See More

Top Con

Can be viewed as a virus

Antivirus systems will think that ''Ungoogled Chromium'' is a virus. See More

Top Pro

Amazing UI

Very clean and slick UI See More

Top Con

No Google Safebrowsing

Top Pro

All of the security benefits of the chromium / chrome browser project and more in config settings without giving up the privacy of each and every one of its users.

Top Con

Lags behind Chrome in security updates

Because it is a fork of Chrome, it will always be slow to update. It does not lag behind google chrome. For windows it might perhaps sometimes but there are upto date repositories for most linux distros. See More

Top Con

Binaries aren't reproducible

meaning they can't be verified. See More

Top Con

Mostly just a customized Chromium build

Not much new here as many of chromiums features can be enabled or turned off with build flags. It is not meant to be bells and whistles. The product is meant to be the 'secure' part of the chromium / google project. Without all of it's spyware. And they succeed in this mission, it's an incredible amount of work to be able to do this with such an open-source project went google-source (aka android). and the devs do pull it off. See More

Top Con

Poor distribution

Binaries are only available for certain distributions and may not always be updated (Windows may be on version 50 while Arch on version 84) See More

Mozilla Firefox

Add Video or Image

Top Pro

Respects your privacy

Mozilla is one of the first browsers that advocates privacy. They believe that internet should be in the user's control and not those who run the websites, and so they give tools inside the browser to make the user be more in control. See More

Top Con

Removes addons based on political beliefs

Mozilla has started banning addons like gab because of their political leaning. See More

StrongBochica's Experience

I it's best secure and lightly complicated to use shortcuts See More

Top Pro

Really independent browser

It is really independent browser, unlike many other that are based on Chromium. See More

Uses Google as its default search engine

Which is pretty ironic for a browser that's focused on "privacy". Fortunately you can change this in the Firefox Settings. See More

OrganizedIxtab's Experience

Firefox is fast. I have faith in it's security. Many add-ons. Good all around top notch browser. See More

Top Pro

Awesome customizability

Great library of add-ons. See More

Top Con

Mozilla once partnered with George Soros to fight misinformation

MerryXbalanque's Experience

Firefox used to be my default browser, but over the years mozilla has broken my trust. Not only by slowing down my browsing experience, ads built in, bad tracker blocking, etc. See More

Top Pro

A lot of add-ons

An enormous number of add-ons. See More

Top Con

This makes the integration on non-GTK Desktop Environments very hard. See More

Firefox is automatically updated on the platforms where it makes sense. See More

Top Con

GTK Themes styles the HTML forms

If you're in Linux and you use a dark GTK theme that uses white text and come to a webpage that forces black text on html-forms buttons you will get black buttons with unreadable black text. See More

DignifiedProteus's Experience

Worst browser ever. It broke my computer three times. See More

Top Pro

Ethical and pragmatic company mission

The Mozilla Manifesto outlines the company's mission and principles. Paraphrasing, they want the Internet to be a free and open resource, and to enable individuals to get the best use of that resource. They do this by creating open source software to which anyone may contribute, so long as such contributions fit with their principles (both ethical and technical). See More

Top Con

Installs Addons with updates

Mozilla is installing/integrating addons with every update like the Mr. Robot promotion - it also has integrated Pocket that spams you every time you open the browser or a new tab with partners of Pocket. See More

Top Pro

Uses less resources

Firefox 57 (Quantum) and newer uses less resources than ever. It is proven with benchmark done by AppleInsider. See More

Top Con

Crappy license

Cannot redistribute binary after source code modification. See More

Top Pro

High performance

The Firefox Quantum update (FF57) greatly increases the render speed and general performance of the browser, by taking better advantage of the user's hardware. See More

Top Con

Supporting Gecko makes no sense

Since Blink is available under a more open and permissive license. See More

Top Pro

Tagging bookmarks

Firefox is one of the few browsers that you can tag your bookmarks. You can view a list of tags and can search your bookmarks in the address bar with tags. See More

Top Con

High RAM usage

It used (for me) 500MB RAM at the startpage. And there is no option to add a limit for the RAM usage. See More

Top Pro

One of the few browsers not using Chrome's Blink engine

Firefox uses its own rendering engine (called Gecko), instead of Google-controlled Blink like the vast majority of other browsers. See More

Top Con

Terrible user interface

And you can't even fix it anymore because they removed XUL. See More

Top Pro

Syncs between devices

Firefox Sync is an optional feature in Firefox that allows syncing bookmarks, passwords, and add-ons between devices. See More

Top Con

Downloader now includes a virus checker

All downloads in Firefox will now be scanned for viruses and there are a lot of false positives. This just shows that Mozilla thinks that all of their users are idiots. See More

Top Pro

Built-in Privacy Protection

Blocks tracking cookies, finger print scanners and Cryptominers by default. Can be changed to the user's individual needs. See More

Top Con

Abandoned XUL for WebExtensions

Dark theme

Beyond the toolbar and tabs, it darkens UI elements such as the URL-bar, pop-downs, new-tab page and more. See More

Top Con

Sometimes very buggy and slow

On sites like twitch.tv chat scrolling is still not fixed. Compared to other browsers Firefox is still very slow and feels sluggish. See More

Top Pro

Screenshots tool

Powerful screenshots tool built right into the browser. See More

Top Con

Multi Profile are not user friendly

Multi profile require command line -no remote to use and open about:profiles to create manually (on chrome, you can instantly create them on right top user button). See More

Top Pro

Strong developer tool

The built-in developer tools have been merged with the popular FireBug extension since FF57. See More

Top Con

Lack of keyboard shortcuts customization

Keyboard shortcuts can not be changed in a user-friendly way. It is also difficult to manipulate addons with hotkeys. See More

When you search in a website (Ctrl + F) there are no marks appearing in the right scrollbar

All Chromium based browsers have this feature. See More

Good font rasterizing

Font rasterizing on Windows is much better than in competitors. Even smaller text is clear and contrast. See More

Top Con

Cannot directly translate page

Unlike Google Chrome, if you visit a website with a different language, you cannot translate it, which is a bad user experience for some. See More

Top Pro

Android version allows installation of addons

Unlike other browsers, Mozilla uses almost the same codebase as with the desktop version so extensions work as-is without code modifications - something other browsers cannot do due to their breaking and sometimes unrelated code branches to the mainline desktop branch. See More

Top Con

Pocket integration

Top Pro

Fast

With new integrations focused on security and performance, Firefox is faster and less likely to have problems during use than ever before. See More

Top Con

Top Pro

Open source

So we can verify that the browser is not spyware. See More

Chromium sets the standard for Web Browsing

Since Google Chrome is the most used web browser, and that browser along with many others is based on Chromium, Chromium sets the standards for the internet and for security, and Firefox will always be years behind. See More

Top Pro

Does not come with Google

Unlike Chrome it does come without any Google account requirement. See More

As Chrome is based on Chromium they overlap in supported features. Chromium syncs between devices, automatically updates, has great built-in developer tools, installs extensions without a restart, includes a combined text bar for entering URLs and searching and has excellent HTML5 compatibility just like Chrome. See More

Top Pro

Backed by Google

Chromium was first released as a large portion of Chrome's source code as an open source project by Google in september 2008. The idea was to encourage developers to review the underlying code and to contribute in making Chrome cross platform and port it to Mac and Linux as well. Nowadays Chromium is a large project with a huge community that's standing behind it but still Google continues to take an extremely active role in Chromium development. This ensures the longevity and constant development and improvement of the browser. See More

Top Con

No silent background updates

Unlike most modern browsers, Vivaldi doesn't have the option to update silently in the background. It gives you a dialog box when an update comes out. Worse, the box doesn't warn you that not updating the browser could lead to security risks. That could be pretty bad for your average joe, who doesn't know computers that well. See More

LuckyJuksakka's Experience

Top Con

Proprietary

Nobody can analyze the code, could send everything to their servers. See More

Top Pro

Web Panels

Web Panels allow for easy access to any site from the side panel. They are useful for reading two websites side by side or for chatting (i.e. Facebook) and surfing at the same time. Panels can be hidden when not in use. See More

Top Con

Comes with many ads

After installation the first thing you have to do is to remove all the default bookmarks and quickdial links which is really annoying. There is more minor stuff like the default search provider or your start page things that could be easily managed with a wizard at the first startup. See More

Top Pro

Dark theme out of the box

There's even an option to automatically transition from light to dark based on the time of day. See More

Top Con

No option to open saved tab stack as... tab stack

You may save stack, but you can open it as separate tabs. Interesting that when you save session with stacks, you'll be able to open the stacks with inner settings of page tiling (size and zoom) as well. Contradiction worth of shame. See More

Top Pro

Saving Sessions

It saves oversights many options and functions implemented in Vivaldi. E.g. see CON "No option to open saved tab stack as... tab stack!" See More

Top Con

Vivaldi has an excellent bookmarks system. Bookmarks can be easily accessible via Speed Dial, side-bar, bookmarks bar, quick commands. No more messy bookmarks bar is needed and location bar suggestion is improved thus! See More

Top Con

Not available on your Phone/Tablet

Vivaldi is currently only available for desktop operating systems (Windows, Linux, Mac), with only a beta version available on Android. No iOS support (yet). See More

Top Pro

Built-in page capture

Vivaldi can grab a picture of the whole webpage or part of it and saves it automatically inside a note or as a file in your disk, or in your elected directory. But I have problems with images of full windows shown on monitor (using X Window System in GNU/Linux). Here I use system XWindow screenshots. See More

Top Con

No guarantee that you won't lose your session

The browser window may freeze at any time, and you lose all your progress, open windows, and session without an option to restore it next time you open your browser. See More

Top Pro

Lots of features and customizability

Vivaldi has a lot of features and customizability. Far more then most (perhaps all) other browses, and many to list them all individuality as separate pros. See More

Top Con

Can't protect pinned tabs from changing to another URL

Clicking on a page link, then another, easy to wind up far from the original pinned tab site. There is no Chrome addon or native Vivaldi function to stop this. See More

Top Pro

Custom search engines

You can add as many search engines as you like. For example you can set up one for YouTube, one for Wikipedia, or whatever you want: you need only the URL of the search and it can be used from the URL bar (by prefixing it's nickname, yt for YouTube for example). See More

Great built-in developer tools

Chrome comes with built-in developer tools, making testing and enhancing web pages simpler for those of us involved in working with such technologies. As well as being beneficial to developers, this also has some benefit to non-technical users; in that by making testing simpler for developers those developers are more likely to use Chrome for their tests, and can spend more time making improvements over investigating underlying causes of issues. See More

Top Con

Big target for hackers

Chrome is the most popular browser in the world. That makes it the most targeted browser in the world by hackers. See More

Top Con

Huge memory hog

Each tab and extension in the browser uses significant chunks of RAM, giving the browser poor performance on machines without enough RAM to supply. See More

AwareNuwa's Experience

I've used this browser since 2009 and I'm never going back to Firefox. This browser is the best! See More

Top Pro

Popular

As of March 2015, Chrome is the most popular browser on the internet, with a 43.9% - 63.7% market share, Its rendering engine Blink is also the most used rendering engine and used in many products including: Opera, Vivaldi, Qt, Brave, Steam or Electron meaning most developers will be testing their sites against this browser to ensure compatibility. See More

Top Con

Not fully open-source

While most of Chrome is open source, Chrome does have some closed-source components to make it possible to play some closed media formats. See More

DignifiedProteus's Experience

Google Chrome is the fastest and most minimalist browser. I like how Google protects my device from dangerous sites and trackers. See More

Top Pro

Plenty of extensions

There are far more available on this browser than any other, and that may matter for some. See More

Top Con

Not as customizable as Firefox or Vivaldi

You can't change the look and other things. Like you can't add a own background like you can in Vivaldi or Opera. Firefox haves also tracker prevention. And Google Chrome doesn't. See More

HumbleQuetzalcoatl's Experience

It was the best browser I ever used. It's much faster and more secure than that bloated Firefox that collects your data and sells it. See More

Top Pro

Proprietary

Chrome is proprietary which means that it is easier to use and more user-friendly. See More

Top Con

Bad quality control on extensions

Some just plain don't work while a few actually break the browser. See More

ThoroughThaleia's Experience

Chrome provides a very secure browsing experience and has the best support. Google is the best. See More

Top Pro

Backed and supported by Google

Whilst Chrome is based on the open source browser Chromium, Google reviews this code and build on top of it. This means it takes (and contributes to) a number of the benefits of the open source model whilst having the resources, support and investment of a major company. See More

Top Con

Hard/impossible to transfer passwords to a different machine without uploading them to Google

Top Pro

Simple user interface

For example, the address bar is also the search bar. Google calls it Omnibox. See More

Top Con

Bad for battery life

Drains battery life on both Windows laptops and Macs much quicker than the alternatives. It can shave hours off the battery life of any non Chromebook laptop. See More

Top Pro

Works great with many extensions

Unlike Firefox, Google Chrome can keep its fast performance regardless of how many extensions are installed. With more than 10 extensions Firefox gets slower and slower in a geometric progression rate. Google Chrome doesn't care how many extensions the user has installed - 3 or 133 it still performs great. See More

Top Con

Increasingly slow

When Chrome first came out, it was known for being lightweight and very speedy. Over the years, more and more features have been added to Chrome. Because of this, crashes, errors, and general laggy-ness has increased noticeably. See More

Top Pro

Engine is open-source

Chromium is open source, except the proprietary media codecs like AAC, H.264, MP3 and Adobe Flash, that can't be legally open-sourced. See More

Top Con

No reader view

Unlike most other browsers, Chrome doesn't have a reader view function. See More

Top Pro

Multimedia Plugins and Codecs included

Google Chrome comes with its own flashplayer and the most common multimedia codecs so you don't have to worry that they are outdated nor do you need to install them as a third party package. See More

Top Con

Does not hardware accelerate HTML5 video correctly

Chrome is unable to hardware accelerate HTML5 video correctly which makes playing 4k video on laptops a poor experience filled with lag. Though there is a workaround for YouTube in that a plugin can be installed to force Flash playback instead of HTML5, which plays smoothly and has no HW acceleration issues. There's another plugin (h264ify) that will force to use the h.264 codec video if available instead of the VP9 one which is the resource hog. See More

Top Pro

Automatically updates

Chrome updates in the background ensuring you're always on the latest version. This makes it much more likely that sites will work on your browser, since (almost) all Chrome users will be running exactly the same version. See More

Top Con

Blurred fonts on Windows

Fonts on Windows are blurred, that is especially noticeable in light fonts on dark background. Small italic text is hard to read. See More

Top Pro

Sandboxed tabs

Every tab runs as their own process, so if one crashes or becomes unresponsive, the whole browser isn't affected. See More

Google Chrome uses a built-in Translation service named Google Translate so you can read websites in your language. See More

Publicly traded IPO
