I have a 2013 MacBook Air (mid 2013) that is running Sierra 10.12.6. Safari has a lot of issues so I can't use some sites (especially when I want to buy things). I have Google chrome but it makes my computer slow and I always got a notice that I will no longer be able to update it with 10.12.6. So my question is what is the best web browser I can use with my older Mac? And can I easy install it without losing my documents etc?

FWIW, a Mid 2013 MBA can be upgraded to Big Sur which can run any modern browser and includes a more compatible version of Safari.

Any 32bit apps would have to be updated or replaced.

dialabrain makes an excellent suggestion. However, even an upgraded safari may still have some problems with some sites so a second browser is a good idea. Chrome is a known RAM hog, so I would move on. I like Firefox.
