Mozilla Firefox and Brave, I would say about 85% of my time is spent in Firefox, 15% are webpages that won't cooperate without using Chromium.

Web application developer by trade... So, unfortunately Chrome at work. But, at home and on mobile, Firefox 100% of the time!
Brave
PC - Librewolf, Firefox, and very rarely Brave
Phone - Mull and Firefox Nightly
Firefox most of the time, portable/standalone chromium for the rare occasion where Firefox doesn't work.
Question: what do people have against chromium? I understand not liking Chrome specifically, but what's the issue with non-Google chromium? I use Brave on my PC and phone, and Edge for work.
As for Firefox, I love and appreciate what they are doing and what they stand for. I tried using it and had one bad experience, where I was doing some web dev and encountered a bug that drove me crazy trying to fix, only to find it was a bug with FF itself. So I switched to Brave for development, and then I liked it and haven't switched back. So, not to say that one little bug "ruined" FF for me, I just haven't had any reason to stop using Brave.
For me it's just ignorance. I don't know if chromium offers what I'm looking for but I do know Firefox does.
Firefox is my browser for life, but I use a lot of them depending on the context. Chromium has very good dev tools that I need for my work. Safari has good battery performance on macOS laptops. Arc has some nifty new ideas.
Firefox user here, switched from Chrome around 3-4 years ago after getting fed up with chrome (don't remember why exactly).
Been pretty happy with FF since then
Brave - works mobile and desktop for me.
Vivaldi. I was a huge Opera fan before they sold out, and Vivaldi is as close as possible to that in a modern browser. I also sometimes use Firefox, but find Vivaldi is faster, has features that work better together than a mishmash of extensions, and works with more stuff because chromium.
Firefox and sync my mountain of addons between all the machines I have it on. Fennec on android.
Firefox on PC, Safari on Mac.
Was content (complacent?) with Edge for a long while till performance dropped off a cliff in latest updates (so much for BingAI). Had been using Ungoogled Chromium more but rough corners annoyed me. So recently tried Vivaldi and was hugely surprised how much its improved since I last used it. And being entirely more flippant these days, RGB integration is a fun (and pointless) feature.
Safari because of the level of iOS/Mac integration. If it ever switches to something based off Chromium, then off to Firefox I go.
I'm a stubborn guy using Firefox since Firefox 3 times.
I do have a few other browsers installed (Midori, Chromium, Lynx [yup!] ) but I can't recall the last time that I used any of them.
I've used a few firefox forks but decided to KISS and stay with Firefox.
I use Chrome for work as their dev tools are better and it allows me to easily separate both.
I might get flack for this, but I like Microsoft Edge. Based on Chromium and has vertical tabs which is nice, and good support for PWAs since MS killed off their native MS Teams for Linux app. Was too hacky trying to get Firefox to work the way I wanted, with vertical tabs, and no native support for PWAs.
