I'm using it now as I type and all the other time. This is my favourite.

Been using it for the last six months and it seems perfectly fine. I was able to install all the extensions I normally use and it's very configurable. Went to Vivaldi because Firefox was having some problems, it locked up computer when there was a streaming problem.

I've never used it, but I am all in favor of having options available to break free of the "top three".
I personally use Pale Moon. It was originally a Mozilla fork, but now has its own rendering engine. Only a small number of sites using deficient browser detection don't work with it.

I have a berry bush with green leaves, which are edible.
but bugs are eating these leaves badly and I need to find a safe way to remove or drive away these bugs.
any suggestions? I need these leaves intact because they are nutritious...

Aren't the bug nutritious as well?

Something like cheap dish washing liquid.

Have you tried a flame thrower?
But then, I'm no gardener. It's possible it might damage the bush slightly.

Set a breakpoint and try debugging it
|

It sounds like they're already at their breakpoint, just asking for advice on the debugging part.

That's a good list.
I'd like to add that when you use soap water, make sure it's old fashioned soap made from natural ingredients.
Some detergents of today leave residue on the plants that aren't degradable nor good for you if you would ingest them.
Also, there's a last resort method missing from that list.
Nicotine.
Reason is probably that it's a bit dangerous.
Nicotine is a highly effective insecticide, but it's also toxic to humans.
Anyway, take some tobacco and let it soak over night in high concentration alcohol, this will dissolve the nicotine into the alcohol.
Mix this alcohol with soap water and use as described for soap water.
Now the caveat.
Nicotine is an alkaloid that to a large extent is destroyed when smoking, so the concentration in alcohol might be considerably higher than it is in smoke.
Also, nicotine can enter the body through the skin. So the use of rubber gloves isn't just a good idea, it's vital if you want to stay vital.
So if you get some nicotine mixture on your clothes you should quickly take them off and wash yourself with soap. (And wash the clothes before using them again)
Last but not least, Nicotine is biodegradable, but surprisingly stable, so don't use it before harvest.

What type of bug?
Snails are easy, just pour some salts. Insects that are drawn to sugars are easy; a cup with any sugary water helps.
Butterflies and caterpillars? A net over your plants.
Last suggestion? Catch the bugs, fry them, add BBQ sauce

it is invisible in the daytime, but all leaves are eaten.

A circle of salt, 50 cms away from the plant, plus a net.
That's a draconian measure. Nothing will ever grow where you pour that salt. For decades.

I think we need more info. How do you know they're bugs if you've not seen them? Could it be deer? Use a trailcam to identify the culprit if you can't be 100% sure it's "bugs". Are there droppings left behind; on the leaves, on the soil? (Are the leaves getting sticky?)
Are entire leaves being eaten, or just nibbled? Is it old leaves or newer ones? Is the woody stalk also being eaten? What are the surroundings (e.g. an urban garden, edge of forest, allotment?)
As someone else suggested, dilute washing-up liquid will deter a good range of pests, but to be sure you need to know your enemy.
