I happened to try Opera on my new phone and it's great. Comes with a perfectly functional adblocker. I can download images from Google search which firefox didn't let me do for some reason. It doesn't refresh my tab when I change tabs, which was so annoying in FF because it meant I couldn't look something else up while writing something.

I have two issues with it. First, when I save an image, it asks me to confirm the name, which is a very cool feature if you do want to name and sort stuff but I'd much rather it just instantly download, I sort by date anyway. Second, tab management could be better. The tabs scroll horizontally which seems like a pretty bad use of a phone's mostly vertical space.

Oh, I'm on Samsung. The Samsung browser is dogshit and I don't want to hand my data on a silver platter via chrome, Google gets too much of my data already through Android

Back when I used android I used chrome, and then switched to the Samsung browser. I thought the Samsung browser was the best one.
but using android at all youre handing all your data to google on a silver platter anyway >.> thats one of the reasons I switched back to apple

I also use Opera on mobile, idk maybe other browsers changed within this year but when I tried other browsers their dark mode fucking sucked. Opera was the only one that had a decent dark mode so I kept it. Though now that you brought up the fact that tabs don't refresh when you use other tabs, and the adblock... that is pretty damn nice. Lol

Microsoft edge is good now. They took all the best parts of Chrome (basically just Chromium) and stripped out anything related to Google. That in and of itself skyrockets it ahead of Chrome, but its genuinely a better browser as well with all the Microsoft stuff replacing the google stuff
