Question Anyone switched recently from Chrome to Brave or Firefox?

Question in title. Considering switching for work laptop. Its a pretty powerful machine (i7 11th gen, 24GB ram), but sometimes I feel like Chrome gets sluggish. Any recent switchers care to chime in? I don't have a lot of extensions so not concerned about that aspect. More interested in browser performance.

I haven't switched recently. I switched to Chrome some years ago when Firefox wasn't fully multithreaded, then switched back once it was because I prefer its features.

If you find that switching to Brave helps, then I would consider doing a reset in Chrome.

I switched from Firefox to Edge.

It works and it is fast. When Edge switched to chromium I haven't looked back. I've never been a fan of chrome. Also Edge seems to work better on Android, so syncing between the devices is a plus. And lastly I have a Microsoft 365 account, so the integration also plays a role.
