The people who work on the Serenity operating system are creating a new web browser (independent HTML/CSS/JS engines) for their OS. Looking to port it to OpenBSD once it is in a more complete state.

For general purpose graphical browsing my favourite is SeaMonkey. I have to admit, though, on some sites it has problems I've been unable to fix (possibly my fault). If it fails I use firefox, or if chrome is necessary I have an older version of Iridium (debian binary); it is actually very good for streaming video.

For text browsing, which I also do a lot of, I use lynx, mostly. I also have links, and felinks which has some minimal JS capability (it also crashes a lot ).

My favourite browser is mothra(1).

I use www/chromium in OpenBSD but Firefox in Linux.

EDIT: and Edge in my Win10 VM.
