Chrome vs. Firefox vs. Safari vs. Edge

Which browser do you use and/or like more than all the others? For me that would be Mozilla Firefox, because it is so much better than any other that I have seen, particularly with performance. However, it does have the downside that it uses more CPU than Edge in particular. Post which one you like the best. :)

Has anybody else literally never heard of Edge? Just me?

The only reason I've ever used Edge  is to download Chrome. While I am not knowledgeable on the technical aspects of these browsers, I like the Chrome UI better than any of the others. The large amount of extensions and Google account integration is great too. Although I heard Mozilla also has a great library of extensions.

Edge is the new default Windows browser, the updated Explorer, but much better than Explorer. It's not bad, but it doesn't have the performance of Firefox, while Chrome is just so slow and annoying I find, with pretty outdated performance. Firefox Quantum is so much better than the old Firefox, while Chrome hasn't had decent updates for ages.
