Firefox, something Firefox based or something entirely other?

    Cromite.

    Snappier than anything else (With real dark mode, adblocker, anti fingerprint and great security).

    Never could get used to Firefox on mobile how hard I try.

    On Desktop, it’s Linux with Librewolf.

    firefox for most things. Chrome for my banking. The banking app refuses to run on my unrooted phone, because I have apps from f-droid installed, and I have a custom keybooard. And their site only works in chrome. Fuck hsbc

    Firefox because nothing has blocked ads as well as Ublock Origin has. DNS is for other apps but for browser Firefox has been king.

    I’ve been using Fennec F-Droid, which is based on Firefox. I mostly use it because I want a non-chromium based browser and Firefox and it’s derivatives have browser extensions on android. I chose Fennec F-Droid because, while I could be wrong, it seems to be slightly smaller and run slightly faster than Firefox.

    Mull, which is based on Firefox, but removes all the telemetry and stuff. I forget why I chose it over other versions of Firefox. Someone here on Lemmy recommended it.

    Firefox because it’s plugins make mobile browsing bareable. I have a folding phone so I wish that Firefox would hurry up and copy Chrome’s multi window feature, and then it would be the perfect browser for me.

    I use Firefox on desktop too, but I’ve been experimenting with Arc the last few weeks to see what the fuss is about.

      There’s also Zen browser that’s Arc-like and based on Firefox instead of Chromium. Zen lets you sync tabs with Firefox elsewhere (including mobile Firefox), run the full uBlock Origin, and it is a fully open source browser.

      https://zen-browser.app/

      It’s also available on Linux too (in addition to Windows and macOS), unlike Arc.

      What’s the multi window feature in Chrome? Is that like containers in Firefox?

        Sorry, I missed this comment until now. Thanks for the tip, I’ll check Zen out.

        The multi window feature I mentioned in Chrome is for foldable phones. Chrome allows you to open two separate instances and have them on either side of your screen; much like you can do on a desktop. I love the multi tasking aspect foldable phones allow, but very few apps allow you to have two instances of them running like that.

    Firefox for trusted sites, Firefox Focus for everything else. Adblock by default and drops all cookies and history when you close the browser.
