Original question by @Turd_Ferg@sh.itjust.works
Firefox is messing around with AI, changed their TOS on user data and now the google monopoly case. Basically Im wondering if there is a good firefox alternative?
Orion
Floorp (main), Mullvad (Social media), Ungoogled Chromium (websites that break)
Librewolf and Brave for the 3 websites that don’t work
I use Librewolf 90% of the time.
10% Edge (but with ShutUp10 ran over it) for HDR Youtube and if adblocking is broken on one browser at the moment.
I’m very uncomfortable with having all web browser engines owned by Americans.
Firefox. Fast and light as usual. I see people say it isn’t and I just don’t get it.
Linux, compared to chromium its the same speed, but with better features of course.
librewolf and qutebrowser
How do you use qute without ad-blocking and auto dark-theming ?
For android, IronFox ( from their repository that I added to F-Droid ) or I started recently using the DuckDuckGo ( also from F-Droid ) for those rare websites that don’t work on IronFox ( like justtherecipe or just earlier justbeamit ).
On my laptop running Linux, I have the default Firefox, an ungoogled chromium for websites that don’t work on FF, and TOR.
As for my desktop running win10 ( and definitely Linux by the end of the summer, I hope ), I have FF, Librewolf, Tor, and just recently got Mullvad VPN’s browser. Probably shouldn’t have that many browsers as once, but I’m an idiot.
Tor Browser. Using the internet raw feels dirty at this point.
Yes, I theoretically could use something else and a standard proxy, but it works worse for the same thing. I can always donate or contribute bandwidth if fairness is a concern, and just having a bunch of normal traffic flowing through is part of the design.
I still use Firefox despite Mozilla because fuck Google.
I tried Librewolf, but YouTube (yeah, I know) ran like crap on it for some reason.
Firefox until there is consensus about which is the correct replacement. In FOSS, dispersion is dangerous.
Firefox for Linux and Android
LibreWolf, IronFox
Firefox on Linux, Fennec on Android
I use Librewolf on my PC and I use Brave on my phone (it’s the only way I can use a uBlock on IOS)
Orion on iOS supports uBO too. It’s from the Kagi search engine people. I’ve been using it for a while now, and I like it a lot.
I knew that Orion supported Firefox and Chrome add-ons, but for some reason I assumed that they won’t work unless it was something I could find on the iOS App store. 😅 I’m def going to add uBO to Orion, Brave’s CEO is such a pos and I’ve always felt icky using it but there wasn’t a good mobile alternative.
I use Firefox, but tbh I don’t know why. Chrome is usually always faster when I have tested…
I think it’s def nice to give attention to the only other big browser that doesn’t use chromium under the hood
