For commercial use of the web, things like internet banking, purchasing, etc., I use what is "recommended". The popular web browser.

For non-commercial use of the web, I use what I want to use. A simple http client and/or text-only browser.

My day-to-day use of the internet is almost always 100% non-commercial.

I never want to use a Javascript-enabled browser for simply retrieving information from the web. For example, reading. This is non-commercial activity.

For simple information retrieval, I find a large, complex, popular, recommended "browser", a single, "do-everything" program, is overkill and, counterintuitively perhaps, such browsers loaded with "features" actually limit what I can do. Using smaller, simpler "one-purpose" programs to retrieve web pages allows me more flexibiilty. I can be more productive.

Using single-purpose programs, I also find the retrieval process to be more reliable and robust, not to mention more transparent. I know exactly what I am sending. Unlike the popular browsers, these programs are not fetching and running code from the internet automatically. I feel a greater sense of control.
