Firefox everywhere. It's not perfect, but is still the closest a browser gets.

Unless I need a PWA on desktop, then Edge (windows) or ungoogled chromium (linux).

There's an extension (plus companion application) for running PWAs via Firefox. It has worked well for me.

Floorp has built in optional PWA feature, but is experimental.

NetSurf is closer to a browser.

[–] hamsterkill@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

NetSurf is a very barebones browser. It can fill a niche, but is not a daily driver where other options are available.

Which is not the case on Plan 9.
