I keep cycling between browsers because no single one ticks all my boxes, and I'm hoping someone here has actually solved this.
My setup: Dual boot Windows + Linux (CachyOS) desktop for games, plus a work Mac laptop and an iPhone. I want ONE browser everywhere with working sync - not a different one per device.
Requirements:
- Kagi as the default search engine
- Proton Pass - including autofill
- YouTube ad blocking on mobile
- Sync across Windows / Linux / macOS / iOS
- Good Icelandic to English page translation (I'm in Iceland, read daily)
What I've already ruled out and why:
- Safari - can't set Kagi as default without sending data to Google, no Icelandic
- Orion - no Windows build
- Edge - iOS locks you to a preset search list, so Kagi is impossible there.
- Chrome - won't block YouTube ads
- Firefox - does most of it, but no YouTube ad blocking on iOS (no extensions).
- Brave - Proton Pass autofill works, YouTube blocking works… but Icelandic translation is garbled (question marks all over headlines).
- Vivaldi - Icelandic translation is cleaner… but Proton Pass autofill is broken on iOS (won't prompt on some pages to autofill the password).
Has anyone actually landed on a single browser that nails everything across Win/Linux/Mac/iOS with sync? Especially if you're also dealing with a small language country
Thanks in advance for any tips or suggestions on things I've missed
PS I had no issues on a Samsung phone previously with Firefox guessing the real solution is to switch back to Android to avoid most of the above iOS related problems.
