Well i'm to lazy, i'm using links or mozilla. Mozilla is a quite nice
browser.. but on linux/unix you don't have alternatives if you want to use
a graphical browser.

Opera is good, but it's adware, and i don't like that.

There is your right. But it's unable to browse the net without tables/frames.
