I would switch to firefox or brave for the adblock but im sooooo used to safari's UI that i just cant bring myself to adjust to a new one....I wonder if theres some kind of elitism between browsers, sort of how arch linux users are soooo proud of themselves
if i was gonna guess, i'd say browser elitism is more spread out & isn't claimed by a specific browser. even then it isn't as bad as with operating systems, but it's still there. i have seen a few people judge others for what browser they use in terms of privacy, mostly it's people talking about whether chromium forks or firefox & its forks are better. like for example, in the privacy guides forum, i used to see some people say firefox & forks based on it weren't "secure enough" because chromium has "better security" with the idea being that privacy guides should only recommend brave. meanwhile fans of firefox & its forks argue that it is more lightweight, challenges the dominance of chromium browsers, and/or that chromium browsers probably still sell your data to google due to the code it's based on

on my iPad, i use safari, but i have it blocked during work sessions. ever since apple’s liquid glass update, i’ve found myself using it more because i like the UI and its pseudo-frutiger-aero-ness
on my windows 7, i use pale moon, which is probably the most surprisingly capable browser across platforms old and new. i don’t browse heavy “modern” sites full of google/facebook/amazon ads, though. just the indie web. and i’ve bookmarked a lot of indie web pages on it i also use retrozilla, a protoweb browser, for websurfing on the protoweb proxy server
