It is important for any computer user to have a browser. A large number of utilities have been developed for Linux that allow you to access the Internet. There are both ordinary "light" browsers, console, and cross-platform.
In the article we will consider the most popular and convenient programs. They can be freely found on the Internet, downloaded for free and installed.
Firefox
This browser is popular all over the world. And it takes third place in it. This browser for Linux is common, it is used most often. This is due to the fact that it is easy to configure, has a huge number of interesting topics and utilities. In addition, the browser uses memory efficiently and has a high level of performance.
However, users complain that developers are constantly introducing new features and an interface that cannot be abandoned. Because of this, there is an outflow of users.
Chrome
Why is this browser for Linux preferred by many? Because it has a lightweight interface and is also designed on a fast engine. Previously, this application provided its users only standard functions, but now their number is increasing. Many interesting extensions have been developed for it.
For Linux, the manufacturer has developed a special version of the browser: Chromium. Another advantage - the utility is created with open source code, and the developer does not collect statistics from his users.
Opera
This browser for Linux is considered innovative. However, a small number of users still use it. In recent updates, the application has been transferred to the Blink engine. Therefore, Opera is now considered one of the versions of Google Chrome. This disappointed many old users. Perhaps that is why a modification of version 12 of the Opera was released, which is called Vivaldi. It supports all the old functionality.
Konqueror
This utility allows you to view files and web pages. As in a regular browser for Linux (Mint or another version of the operating system), the program allows you to create tabs, block pop-ups, filter ads, scroll through tabs with the mouse. The utility is also able to open ISO extension files. She is a great browser - file manager for Linux.
Web
This browser for Linux has a simple interface without unnecessary functions. Unfortunately, developers have stopped supporting custom extensions. However, the browser itself has all the necessary additions. These include filtering, mouse gestures, and others.
Yandex
For Linux, Yandex is considered one of the best browser. It works quickly, stably. It was released for this operating system in 2014. Unfortunately, a version for 32-bit devices has not been developed, so not all users can use this browser.
Summary
A large number of user-friendly browsers have been developed for Linux. Each user should independently select an application that will be suitable for the version of the operating system. In addition, you need to pay attention to the characteristics of the computer. These settings also affect application performance and performance. Many users prefer to use Firefox or Chrome.
