Genuinely don't know of any others but Firefox. I do a little lynx sometimes for super sus stuff but it's barely a browser....
There's Konqueror. I don't know how secure it is, though...
Konqueror was discontinued a couple years ago, unfortunately. Edit: apparently it wasn't.
Last stable release was 43 days ago, according to Wikipedia.
Really? I guess I was wrong.
There’s WebKit and KHTML based ones, although I don’t know of any mainstream browsers that use those aside from safari or iOS. Other niche options exist for Linux.
There's also DuckDuckGo's browser - but I'm not sure what it's based on.
It's Blink based as far as I know, well at least on Android, iOS still doesn't allow other browsers.
Fairly certain its Webkit.
That and konqueror where what I had in mind. I guess there is also gecko and ie as well as the ones I listed in my original comment now that I think about it.
The only others I know of are Mac-only: Safari and Orion.
Orion is great. I wish there was a Linux version.
Gnome Epiphany (renamed to Gnome Web at some point?) uses Safari's rendering engine.
Never heard of Orion before!
Orion is by the developers of Kagi (a paid search engine that is actually as good, if not better, than Google) and has ad-blocking and anti-tracking built in natively. It's awesome.
Oooooh, now you've got me interested. I've heard good things about Kagi's paid search and yet to give it a try.
w3m is nice in terms of text based browsers although it can't run javascript
Opera, Safari, Brave, Lynx, Edge, Tor, and some others. There are a bunch of derivative browsers too.
isn't opera chromium based?
Brave and Edge too, I thought? And Tor is based on Firefox iirc
It is now, but it didn’t use to be
