I’m still in the saga of trying to switch to android and hit another roadblock lol. I’m looking for a web browser that implements gesture navigation with linear animations like on iOS. The closest browser I’ve found is opera GX, but the PC/MacOS version of opera runs like shit with 30fps animations for all the UI elements.

    And a note, Chromium based browsers aren’t preferred as 1) They’re a monopoly 2) They run worse than Firefox based browsers in my experience and 3) The whole Manifest V2 extensions debacle

    Of the Chromium-based browsers, there aren’t many good options in my opinion. Chrome and Edge are owned by Google (terrible when it comes to privacy) and Microsoft (terrible when it comes to privacy + would you like to use CoPilot and Bing?) respectively, Opera’s browsers are worse than big G and MS in terms of privacy, and Brave is leaning towards crypto and NFTs. Vivaldi have good intentions but is closed-source. Ungoogled Chromium seems to be good, if a bit barebones.
