I've had no issue so far. It's just as fast as Chrome for me and the AdBlock just the cherry on top. I use it on both my phone and Android tablet

Edit: Kiwi is based on Chromium so its privacy is arguably very very debatable

I did speed comparisons and it was just terribly slow.

Plus I hated the functionality of opening up every single new url in a new tab. That was enough for me to give up on it to be honest, so frustrating and no options to change.

Agree its privacy is debatable, but it's still better than Chrome. Can at least block all ads.

Weird, that never happens to me and I've been on Firefox a couple years now (albeit mostly Firefox Nightly). Maybe it's changed, but I can respect your choice.
