In the past 10 years it's pretty much just been Firefox, Safari, Explorer/Edge, and Chrome. 99% of browsers are just skinned Chrome. Even Edge now. Opera's engine died in 2013.

    99% if browsers are just skinned Chrome.

    Yup. Hence, the reason I originally suggested to use Firefox, only because it's not built on Chromium.

    Just FYI, the word "hence" literally means "for this reason". So you just said "for this reason the reason" lol.

    They're developed separately. It's a hard fork so I consider them different.

    Man I haven’t been around that long but I feel like some of my knowledge is outdated and I have to start with “a long time ago in a galaxy far far away” because I stopped paying attention

    That's also hugely in part because Apple develops Webkit at a snails pace. Some say they gimp their own rendring engine so that it isn't competitive with native applications from the App Store. This way, there's less incentive for developers to make web-apps to avoid the 30% app store tax.
