What does your browser setup/window look like

[Deckade (Tolo)]

Hey guys, I thought browser windows are pretty personal things that give insight into people, but aren't talked about in that way much. This could be silly but I want to give it a shot. Here's mine.

Iv never been a major tab user - unless Im really in the middle of a project that has a bunch of info pages I need - usually it's just one or two! Also I close the browser a lot, so often there are no tabs at all!

Also I tend to have it set in a square aspect most of the time.

Extension icons - from left to right:

• AdGuard - its a good adblocker - thats I have it installed system wide so thats just a control widget.
• 1Password - I definitely recommend using a good password manager.
• Save to My ToDo list - useful for forum topics I need to get back too!
• Wayback Machine - lets me quickly check archives of a site and save archived pages!
• Raindrop - My bookmarks!
• The cog is site settings like auto play music and permissions etc
• Tabs and search bar - I use compact mode tabs which merges both
• Downloads button
• E-mail this page button - I enjoy emailing pages to people!
• New tab + tab windows

This screenshot showcases my two browser I use regularly; LibreWolf for a classic web experience, and Kristall for when I want to turn it down a bit and browse (X)HTML-only, plain, self-stylable, information-first websites. Here's my website displayed on both.

At this very moment I don't have much open at all.

Other days, I'll have dozens of tabs open depending on what I'm doing. Not only that, I'll have Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Opera all open.

Say hello to my 648 tabs

i usually don't have more than a handlful of tabs open. i hoard bookmarks instead of tabs.

Here's my browser! I keep it themed like Netscape and I found a way in my browser (Mypal, a fork of Pale Moon) to disable tabs so I have an old-school browsing experience! Sadly SeaMonkey doesn't work properly with my school's network or else I'd probably be using it. (Or maybe it's a problem with my Windows proxy, I'm not sure.) I like to keep it in a nice small window in the middle of my screen so I can see other things (like IM windows) as well as just see my pretty desktop background, because what's the point of having it if I never see it? My browser is an older version, so I have a newer version (Mypal 68) for things that don't work, like some of my school's learning system as well as G-Docs, etc., and Supermium (based off of modern Chromium) for my school e-mail, since that's pretty picky about what it works in.

There ain't many purple aesthetic colors that I fw, but this one I like the most.

I really like mine, personally

I love and use the vivaldi browser for a couple years now. <3 currently in my code & web workspace (the arrow you see before imgbb pinned tab is where they are). I also have a second/default workspace for general tabs and browsing and socials but uh.. I occasionally don't switch and do whatever bc its quicker.

Made an orange dark theme a while back. Thats also why there's still the Halloween house for the home button XD Might change that graphic sometime. I also had a custom teal one before with lots of personalized icons but.. it got whipped with a past update :( pretty sure I saved that theme but I guess Vivaldi had other plans. 

The taskbar is start 11 btw. I'm a stardock lover. I have a couple of software from them but I don't use all anymore.

I use firefox primarily with a geckium installed because I like how it looks. Sometimes I use retrozilla with protoweb for browsing older websites, which works really well.

I use Waterfox, with a few themes added solely for customization. Because I like cyan, I looked for that add-on.  Waterfox also has an easy way to switch search engines that I use occasionally.

01/09/2026 - I'm gonna respond to this again since basically everything has changed since my last post 

I used Safari for a while back in the day, but after the whole Arc disaster, I've since gone back to Fire/Waterfox as my main browser, using a more classic layout. These days I use more older OS's along side newer MacOS, so its helpful to have a consistent browser across everything.

As a general rule, I want Forward/Back buttons on the left - followed by the address bar - followed by the reload button - followed by the search box - adblock - and anything else. I usually keep the default new tab splash screen, but I turn off everything but the search box. I also dont often use the browser in fullscreen mode, so if you are making a site for 1080p+ it will look wrong for me.

The theme I've used in Firefox for about 5 years is Catnip Cosmo

Here's mine! After Waterfox updated their layout to some hot garbage I had some fun messing around with the layout and colours. The layout is more or less the same as the previous Waterfox version's default one, but I added in a shortcut to browser settings and a shortcut to Web developer tools since I use those functions often.

I also decided to switch back to light mode just to change things up a bit, and I'm liking it; feels fresh!
