Web Browsing
Arc
Organize with spaces and profiles, split view, themes, and more. Promises to be private and secure.
Brave
Three times faster than Chrome, plus protection from Google, plus a secure crypto-wallet — that’s what they promise, but you know what they say about things that sound too good to be true.
Browserosaurus
When you click on a link, a menu displays with your installed web browsers. Choose the one you want.
Chrome
If you use and trust Google apps such as Gmail, Google Pay, and Google Assistant, then this is the browser for you. Just keep in mind that you pay with your data.
Firefox
The non-profit open source effort from Mozilla, often updated, with a huge collection of add-ons. Fast, private and secure.
Fluid
Create site-specific mini-web browsers for your web apps, so that they launch like desktop programs in your dock. Great for checking Gmail, for example.
Hyperduck
Send links from your iPhone, iPad or Apple Vision Pro to your Mac and have them open in your default browser — even if your Mac is offline.
Opera
Browse fast, secure and ad-free, chat directly in your browser, easily connect your devices share files. Surf with enhanced privacy and free VPN.
Orion
A web browser based on Webkit — the same as Safari. No tracking or ads by default. Supports extensions not only from Safari, but also Chrome and Firefox. In beta as of this writing.
SeaMonkey
Powered by Mozilla, it’s a web browser, an e-mail and newsgroup client, an IRC chat client and a web page creator all rolled into one.
Speediness
Test the upload and download speeds of your internet connection. You can monitor the speed in your menu bar, and you can check the results of previous tests.
Tor
Remain anonymous on the internet while web browsing, messaging or remote logins. Works with many existing clients to bounce your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world.
Ungoogled Chromium
Google Chrome is based on the open source Chromium. Without all the dependencies added by Google, Chromium is faster, safer and more private.
Velja
Open links in the browser or matching app of your choice. Custom rules let you open links based on which app the link was clicked in.
Vivaldi
Lots of highlights, but you can go as minimal as you want. Enjoy the built-in ad and tracker blocker, email client and notes manager. Also: build your own browser themes and translate highlighted text.
Zen
A beautiful browser based on the Mozilla framework — the same as Firefox. Features include work spaces, compact mode, split views, and a sidebar.
