I'm here and no I don't participate in any Black Friday madness. I enjoyed the turkey I roasted on Thursday and watched Christmas movies.
I run Windows 7 on four computers. My default browser is Palemoon.

But I also have FF
ESR which stands for extended support release and isn't updated every 6 weeks. Security updates are done.

I also have Vivaldi, based on Chromium (a bit different from resource hungry Chrome) on my 32 bit desktop and Waterfox on my 64 bit netbook.
I refuse to install Chrome on any Windows computer even though it is the most popular.
Why Palemoon, a branch of Firefox? I found it to be so much faster than Firefox so I switched to it in 2014.
You can try portable versions to see what feels comfortable. The portable versions will be slower than the installed versions but you can have a look and ask questions on how to do things.

softpedia is a safe download site. I don't go near softonic because they've bundled junk in the past.

portableapps is also a safe site to download anything.
Vivaldi doesn't have a portable version. I have downloaded the exe and put it on a folder on my desktop rather than installing.
