Any issue with websites breaking? Since sites only care about chromium support nowadays
I want to switch to a more privacy focused browser, would like to hear what yall use currently and why. Edit: I’m currently using edge. Edit: Thanks everyone for your input. I have decided to go with [floorp](https://floorp.app/) (a firefox fork) with [betterfox](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/). Here's my decision process, 1. Firefox based browser - To help with browser monopoly - I really like the sidebery extension 2. I chose floorp instead of ff or other ff forks because of the ease of customization - I also tried zen browser but experienced a bug just from my short usage so I think it's not mature enough for me currently, but I do like the project. 3. Betterfox + extensions for better privacy settings - Ublock Origin - ClearURLs - Decentraleyes Did not choose to go with LibreWolf, Mullvad etc because I'm worried about site breakages.

Theoretically, without the server, every time you want to connect to a peer you would have to figure out what's their public IP address is, which can change. The server acts as a middleman between the peers so you dont have to do this manually, all peers only need to know the server's IP address to connect to each other. The server is really only used for this initial linking up of peers, afterwards the connection is P2P (if possible, they fall back to a relay server if P2P fails).
