Firefox, Epiphany web browser and midori. When I'm using windows I use Firefox.

I like Epiphany, but I think it leaks memory or something. After running for a while it starts taking tons of memory and closing tabs doesn’t seem to release it (the computer goes back to normal when it’s closed completely though). Maybe it’s just the Fedora build, I’m not sure

There’s also Otter Browser for another WebKit based choice, but it’s pretty rough and developed slowly

I haven't experienced that. It's been running smoothly when I've used it.
