Most people use Chrome, and since it's Chromium-based, for now, it's a Chrome extension. It can work on other browsers like Edge. but if many people request it for a specific browser, that will be fine. As I mentioned, I have the logic of the code, so I can run it in any environment
Many here will not use chrome because they chose Steemit for a reason and they consider firefox or other browsers better or safer. Next to that it's a heavy browser to run on old devices/phones.
Somehow it feels again mobile users can drop dead.
The most private browser I encourage you to use is Brave, especially if you're using Linux. Brave also supports Google extensions. If you're using Windows, I recommend Edge for a good user experience, as it's optimized for Windows. If you're concerned about privacy while using Edge, remember that you're still using Windows, which is tied to Microsoft ,so nothing is truly hidden from them. If you're using macOS or iOS, Safari is definitely the best browser for privacy.
Most browsers support Chrome extensions, but Firefox does not, it's not hard to create an extension for Firefox if I have the code of a Google extension; that's not a problem at all, as Firefox uses add-ons. However, other popular browsers like Edge, Brave, Opera, and Kiwi do support Chrome extensions because they are based on the Chromium engine.
What is the Chromium engine ? : the Chromium engine runs web browsers like Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and others; it is the fundamental code enabling browsers to execute extensions and display webpages. Though still compatible with Chrome extensions, other browsers may build on top of it and personalize it for their own use as it is open-source.
Kiwi is answered but how about Firefox and Samsung browser? @kafio
