Not on your list: Orion Browser by Kagi.

Very fast. Zero telemetry. Lightweight, natively built with WebKit, made for you and your Mac. Industry-leading battery life, privacy respecting by design and native support for web extensions.

Note that Edge is more or less Chrome except account / telemetry going to Microsoft not Google.

+1 for Orion. Been using it on my work laptop pretty much exclusively (still need to do testing for my work in Chrome/Firefox), and it is hands down my favorite browser.

Now that 1Password natively supports Orion (they had a browser whitelist), I can probably switch back to it on my personal machines / iPhone, but Safari is still pretty sticky for my non-work life.

I'm giving Orion a try every couple months because the premise is great but unfortunately for me it's so buggy that it's unusable. But then again I rely on a lot of very modern web APIs like WebRTC. Hopefully one day it'll get there but it's a very long road ahead. Not sure where those bugs come from either because Safari doesn't suffer from the same issues.
