I like Firefox. It’s everyones own opinion though what they use.

Most people use Chrome, but I prefer Firefox. A big plus for Firefox is extensions work in the Android version, whereas mobile Chrome doesn't block ads so it's total garbage. So I have a good browsing experience on my PC and on my Phone and all my bookmarks etc are nicely sync'd up. Switching from Chrome also made me think about how Google violate your privacy at every given opportunity, and a few simple choices can drastically improve your privacy online, see below.

Opera is my go-to browser.
If you value your privacy at all (and you should), avoid Chrome. Stick with Brave, it's Chromium without phone-home tracker stuff and it has HTTPS Everywhere, fingerprint protection and script blocking (a la NoScript) built in. If it doesn't have to be a Blink/Webkit/Chromium base then Firefox has come on leaps and bounds since Quantum (their new fast and light code base) and isn't currently undergoing the 'death to all adblockers' Mandate v3 controversy as Chrome/Chromium is.
