what web browser do you use and why?

After a long time of using Chromium browsers (from Chrome to Brave to Edge to Vivaldi) I ended up back at good old Firefox again. On Mac I just use either Safari or Firefox. There's been a time where I was particularly unhappy with Firefox, as at the time it felt sluggish to me. Now it's the exact opposite. I've become very frustrated with how sluggish Chromium browsers can be. While I appreciate the efforts of the Vivaldi crew I think I'm just happier with Firefox.
Wish I could figure out why clicking on my downloads in the download list doesn't open them, though (I'm on KDE Neon).

Not sure if the UI is exactly the same but are you clicking on the magnifying glass icon next to the name or the filename itself?
If you click the name on the OS versions I've used, it opens the file or in the case of a zip, unpacks it.
For me there’s the filename followed by a map icon. Clicking on the map opens op Dolphin at the download folder as expected, but clicking on the file doesn’t always work. Files like PDFs work just fine, but Deb and Flatpakref files don’t open up the KDE package manager as expected. I’m not really sure why that is. Suppose it’s down to the handlers but I’m not sure how to configure that on Linux.
Funnily enough LibreWolf properly asks me what I want to do with a file and does it accordingly.
EDIT: I’ve fixed the issue, more or less. I was using the Flatpak version of Firefox and by default it seems to have very limited access. Adding a permission to allow access to my home folder fixes it. It’s probably not the most secure solution though.
