This is such a weird problem! Only Google Chrome is loading websites, and the others just time out? That’s so frustrating.
Have you tried using a different user profile on your computer? Sometimes user-specific settings can cause issues like this.
Also, maybe check if your firewall is blocking the other browsers. You can temporarily disable it to test.

Hey everyone, thanks for all the suggestions! I tried a bunch of them, and changing the DNS to Google’s (8.8.8.8) actually worked! Now all my browsers are loading websites again.
I’m still not sure why only Google Chrome is loading websites was happening, but I’m just glad it’s fixed.
Quick question though—could this be related to my ISP? I’m on Xfinity, and I’ve heard they sometimes mess with DNS settings. Should I stick with Google DNS, or is there a better option? Thanks again, y’all are lifesavers!
