Android Browser Recommendations

[MadAxe]

After the latest update, Google has messed up Chrome pretty great.
Everyone hates the grid tab layout including me.
One cannot change the Grid tab layout to Cascade without reverting Chrome back to factory version. This uninstalls all the security updates which isn't recommended at all.
Reverting back tab groups now requires a lot of steps and disabling a lot of flags. Which is a hit and a miss. Works for some, doesn't work for others. These steps would need to be done after every update.
So I've decided to chuck Chrome.

Suggest a web browser for Android.

Requirements: Cascade tab layout, Dark Mode, Supports Ad blocker (better if inbuilt), extensions and addons, Can import bookmarks and settings from Chrome

Please post reviews of browsers you use that satisfy the above requirements.

Go for Brave browser or maybe Bromite both are based on Chromium engine.

If you are willing to let go of cascade tab browser , then I'll suggest firefox. Moved from chrome to firefox about an year ago for both pc, mobile has been a pleasant experience. Especially w/ ublock.

Firefox. Go for it.

It crashes for me on Android 12 beta sometimes. But has been rock solid on Android 11. Protects your privacy and is not built on Chromium.

Is there no 'open in new tab' option on Firefox Android homepage.
I only see 'open in private tab'.
I tried searching around but couldn't find anything.

Noticed this yesterday. New tab button only appears in tab view.

Tab view? Isn't that open link in new tab?
Is there any workaround to enable 'open in new tab' on homepage?

Doesn't look like it.

Have the address bar at bottom which I think is the default setting?

Opera has multiple browsers with different user interfaces. Check them out if one of them has tabs the way you like it.

Opera Touch: fast, new & modern web browser - Apps on Google Play seems to have card interface.

You're getting it wrong. What I'm asking is when you open Firefox, it opens the homepage which contains the most visited pages. You hold any one of the page, you get two options shown above in ss 'Open in private tab and Delete from history'.
Shouldn't it also have an option of 'open in new tab' like in Chrome and all other browsers?
