Very useful thread, it's good to have block explorers listed in one place. You can take a look at another explorer - it's https://blockexplorer.one/btc/mainnet. But I never used it, so I can't give any comments about it
My favorite explorer is Blockchair. But mostly I use Blockchain.com, because their name simply comes first to my head usually.
Yes, I can review it tomorrow and add it to the list. If you want you can also review and rate it, otherwise I'll rate it myself, if it's ok?

And can you tell criteria that you used to give ranking? Because  I as not tech savvy guy, I don't see huge differences between best block explorers.
Rating is not really representative but I tried to consider the features (like bech32 support // SegWit-Addresses (P2SH) identifyable // additional details like fees (some explorers often confuse Sat/Byte and Sat/vByte)), the general layout and if it's easy to use. At least these criteria are relevant for the ones I've rated. The other ones were suggested and rated by the people who suggested it, don't know which strategy they did apply.
The best block explorers on the list are similar and sufficient for everyday use. My favorite explorer is Blockchair, too.  Smiley
