I just started using Brave Origin after trying to switch to Safari for a while. Safari felt aggravating to use after having used Chrome for so long, but Brave has been great.
I came back to Firefox after a stint of trying others out. I returned because, despite all of its downsides, it's still the least bad option of the ones I've tried.
But (despite that I used to be hardcore Firefox user and advocate) I'm not married to any particular browser. It's so easy to change browsers that I'll do so the instant one that better meets my needs comes around.
It's plenty of RAM, I think it's not your machine's fault, it's just that Dia afaik uses chromium and chromium likes ram, I used to use arc, and I was not willing to switch to Dia looking at what The Browser Company did to arc
Safari because of the seamless integration with Apple platform features and because it is the most energy efficient browser while still being the most performant. It’s the best of all worlds.
If you are tied to apple ecosystem, then obviously Safari is going to be the fastest one since its apple specific so they can optimize it for their hardware, though I think with as powerful computers as we have right now, you can run almost any browser without performance issues
Brave with all the cruft turned off except Brave Shield. Chrome isn't bad either.
I'd love to be able to tolerate Safari, but it's just not a good day-to-day desktop browser.

Firefox with ublock origin plugin on desktop as well as android.

Have you tried any other firefox based browsers, like Zen, or LibreWolf?
Yes, I have.
Been using firefox recently, least laggy out of that chrome and (eww) edge.
I currently use firefox, works well for me.
I've been using Dia, and this got better after the recent inclusion of Spaces similar to Arc.
But, I'm suffering from RAM issues. Got 24GM RAM M5 (Non-Pro) MacBook Pro and about 10-15 tabs open, I'm consuming 19GB RAM with 5-9GB RAM in swap.
I mean... now I'm wondering if I should've got higher RAM.
Since I came from Air M1 8GB RAM, I thought 24GB is plenty enough but seems like not.
