From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

And as with every other of these browser lists some flavor of the month new firefox-based one wins. One that might or might not still exist in that form in another year (here it's one that only exists as firefox release-based for a year - before that is was a fork from some old firefox version or even based on chrome at some point). 🥱
ungoogled chromium and floorp were the top tier, only one of them is ff based, neither one of them is new, both are weird choices for the top.
It ain’t really his top.
He said in the video that he uses Floorp and Chromium so he can’t put them in another tier.
What he thinks is best is in the tier under.
So he has ungoogled chromium, and floorp as top tier, uses them, but doesn't see them as the best
Then he has vivaldi, watefox, librewolf, and zen in 2nd tier, but they are the best ones?
It's like a tier list on reddit, someone just wanting to look at the pretty pictures while not making much sense
Some obvious omissions too: firedragon, mullvad, tor, ddg
