      I switched a few weeks ago, I have not been able to test it on a PC, but the Android app definitely feels slower than Chrome, Cromite and Vivaldi.

        Enable Ublock origin. It’ll be faster when it doesn’t need to load ads.

          It is enabled, I think the performance hit would come from Dark Reader… but it is a must have extension for me (the reason I dropped Chrome actually, since they ditched the ability to darken websites in recent chrome versions).

      Switched? I’ve been using it since pre-1.0

      I have chrome, but that’s because my company’s product uses it for our clients plugin. Only use it for work stuff.
