In times when one does not want to use Chrome or other Chromium-based browsers, and the new and trendy browsers like Arc are Chromium-based, the choice is quite limited—especially if you want proper extensions and a design that doesn’t suck. So, Firefox is out because it looks terrible. But Gecko is fast and reliable. In the search for a Gecko-based browser that tries to be a bit more modern and doesn’t look terrible, I stumbled upon Zen Browser. It’s basically “just” a Firefox fork with a nice UI that adapts modern ideas for tab management. It’s still in alpha and sometimes has bugs, but it works very well, and it’s currently my default browser on both my private and work computers.
