Question

Which web browser?

Answer

Many different browsers are used to browse the internet and today we’re focusing on three major browsers.

The most popular browser right now is Google Chrome. Users love Chrome for its customization and clean interface. Chrome has a seemingly endless suite of extensions available so individuals can personalize their browsing experience. Chrome is compatible with nearly every device that can browse the internet. Linking Chrome to your Google account allows your information to be shared across every device you use, including browsing history and password management. The only notable downsides with Chrome include memory usage with numerous tabs open and giving more information to Google (if you’re concerned about that).

Microsoft Edge, the new web browser for Microsoft 10, is very lightweight and won’t use up large amounts of system resources. However, Edge does not yet have support for many extensions. If you’re looking for a simple, snappy experience that melds well with what Windows 10 offers, then Microsoft Edge might be right for you.

Safari is the Apple-branded counterpart to Microsoft Edge and default browser on all Apple computers. Safari functions smoothly on these devices, however Safari’s support for extensions is extremely limited and it’s very difficult to get anything beyond a basic adblocker. Essentially Safari is a very simple, lightweight and stable web browser that functions exceptionally well on macOS and iOS.
