Firefox running under native wayland for smooth scrolling and with apz.overscroll.enabled set to true. The best experience on Linux.
Vivaldi. For me, in terms of usability, it's the closest thing to Opera (and by "Opera" I mean the browser that it was before moving to Blink/Chromium).
Recently moved from Librewolf to Floorp (also based on Firefox). It is at least worth checking out Iβd say, especially if youβre on Vivaldi specifically because you canβt find something which competes in customisation, workspaces, and sidebars and all.
Librewolf
Same
Qutebrowser and Firefox
On desktop, Librewolf (Firefox) and Brave. Sometimes I need a Chromoum browser (thanks Google), and Brave is one of the better options.
On iOS, it doesnβt really matter. Though, I went with Brave. Ad blocking and background media playback is great.
On Android I use Mull, which is a hardened Firefox, with goals similar to Librewolf. Again, Brave as a backup.
Opera
Arc!
Google Chrome because I'm hooked on extension syncing and have had poor experiences with Firefox. I'll reevaluate once Manifest v2 is sunsetted.

Desktop:
Mullvad browser as daily driver (Firefox + Arkenfox + Tor Browser + ublock origin out of the box)
Degoogled chromium for any logged in accounts, each in its own profile (I prefer the chrome profile switcher)
Tor Browser for any onion sites
Mobile:
Mull (Firefox)
Brave on both.
- Native vertical tabs +1
- tablet UIs
- scrolling velocity doesn't feel non-native
Would like to revisit Firefox once those are fixed.
vertical tabs are managed by extensions. i used tree style tab, now i'm using sidebery.
if you want to use sidebery, use the beta from the GitHub page. they completely rewrote the extension between v4 and v5

Mac - Opera main, Safari secondary, + Brave for free YouTube.
At home, Firefox. At work: Chrome because I'm a web developer and our app is currently broken in Firefox
Edge.
Brave. It got better privacy ratings than Firefox and I really like the design.

chrome
Librefox (a Firefox fork) or if I really just don't want to use that for sites like fandom, I can always rely on the text based Links browser to save the day.
Firefox and chrome
Brave on laptop and on phone. I tried to switch to Firefox recently but too many little things bugged me. I still have Firefox on my phone for when something doesn't work in Brave (like free movies on Southwest flights).
Firefox on pc librewolf on mac
