Librewolf mainly because that’s the Firefox-type browser that comes with my distro (IceCat is there too, but it’s based on ESR and not frequently updated).
Librewolf (I love the privacy) Tor browser (To browse onion sites/View webgl websites or privacyintrusive sites) Cromite (Mobile only)
I’m curious, how do you find your site’s? Is the whole ecosystem sketch?
There is a search engine for it and sometimes from my friends/youtube it isn’t super hard to find onion sites (if this is what you mean)
I use FireDragon, because it’s the only browser I could find that has a vertical tab-bar that collapses. Supposedly Zen does it, too, but I couldn’t get it to work.
FireDragon also has a toolbar to the side with a notepad and other neat stuff. I haven’t used that yet, but it could be cool.
Waterfox is based on esr, so quite outdated. Just use librewolf and some css. You have firefox-one that will make it look pretty and similar to zen. Zen is no good if you care about privacy.
“Zen is no good if you care about privacy.”
How so?
It doesn’t have good privacy defaults and is easily fingerprintable with all the mods and tweaks it has… You will have to use a user.js at least but it will probably not get as good as mullvad or librewolf
FireDragon because it’s the version of Firefox that Garuda ships with and I never saw a reason to change from it.
Brave
Vivaldi because:
- built in ad and tracking blocker
- Clear, easy to understand privacy policy
- best UI customizability
- hibernates tabs
- clear and sensible business model
- not vc funded.
- webdav support for calendar syncing
- actually contributes to the fediverse.
If i had to choose something fully floss i would go with librewolf.
Still Firefox. Every time Mozilla does anything the entire privacy community goes insane. The terms of use they published seem entirely benign, and the only thing anyone can actually point to is the “direction being worrisome”. Well, I’ll get worried when they update the terms to be actually onerous. Everything even possibly annoying can be disabled, and it’s still the only browser engine offering competition against Chrome ruling the web.
I don’t see how you could find the terms not concerning and their removal of stating they don’t sell data
It’s easy you just don’t worry too much about it. Is this a completely dumbass, reality avoidant coping strategy? You be the judge
Well, yes.
What in the terms is concerning? They still have the bulk of the language in the old data privacy guarantee as well. This seems like they just got a more circumspect legal department who wants to cover their ass.
It’s always been the case that Mozilla could decide to just make Firefox suck ass. Again, I’ll be worried when they actually change the terms to something unacceptable.
Librewolf, it’s Firefox but without the evil.
FF is evil now?
I fail to understand the question mark at the end of your sentence.
It’s a casual English language construction of the 90s. It’s equivalent to “FF is evil?” And implies that the writer believes that it didn’t used to be.
I’ve been using Zen for the past couple days and it’s absolutely spectacular. I really really been enjoying it.
It claims to be a fork of Firefox but there’s still Firefox under the hood and you can tell. But I find that it runs significantly faster than Firefox standard. So who knows. The author seems to be making it as ambiguous as possible so I would think that it’s a soft fork that’s basically stock Firefox with a few minor changes and a new look.
What’s wrong with Chromium? License or Google backing?
Nothing. Just echo chamber hysteria.
All these downvotes really prove your point.
I think I might switch to that.
I used Firefox for cross-platform password management. That’s the biggest impact on me.
Who cares about downvotes from people which become irrational about a browser engine, lol.
The Google backing. See ublock Origin for example. Google wants less effective ad blockers because ads are 90% of their business. Google removed manifest v2, which is needed for good ad blocking capabilities. Now Chromium, and any browser based on it (Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, etc.), also lose it. Some have said they will manually add it back in to their browser, but that will only be possible for so long as Google’s upstream Chromium base further diverges.
The massive market share of Chromium-based browsers also gives Google near complete control over web standards. There are many websites that use non-standard functionality that only works in Chromium and not Firefox or Safari. Developers also will not adopt new standards unless Google chooses to as well because there would not be enough users to justify it otherwise.
TLDR: Control over Chromium gives Google extremely strong influence over the web and their interests likely do not have much overlap with yours.
On pc I use both librewolf and firefox
On mobile I use mull, fennec, and vanadium if for some reason they want something chromium based
There was some sort of bullshit going on in like 2003 with Internet Explorer so my dad switched us to Firefox, I’ve been on it since. Never felt the need to go to Chrome when it cane around.
Safari, because I don’t care about which specific browser I should use, neither wasting my time lookin for alternatives, but zen and brave really caught my eyes these days
Librewolf & waterfox are fantastic. Zen is interesting but it takes some work if you are used to firefox/Librewolf. Ladybird isn’t out yet 🫠
