I use geh Firefox forks mull and fennec, I occasionally use vanadium. I just like privacy but tor is overkill for me
Firefox because it’s one of the last browsers against the Chromium monopoly.
Also UBlock Origin is wayy better on Firefox, even before Google forced their version of Manifest v3 on all Chromium based browsers.
Firefox, because a) open source, b) ad blocking, and c) fuck Google and other corporate overlords.
Firefox.
I’ve been using it since the Phoenix days. I occasionally go to Vivaldi (which is currently my secondary browser), but currently I’m back with Firefox.
Firefox, and ill continue to use it for as long as possible. No thanks Chromium.
I just use Vanilla Firefox, I use chrome for work but all my personal stuff on Firefox, left chrome after there was talk of stopping ad blockers.
Currently using vanilla Firefox with https://github.com/black7375/Firefox-UI-Fix to make the tabs look like actual tabs rather than weird floaty bubbles.
Used to use Chromium, but switched because they made it so that sites could autoplay videos in response to “user interactions”, whatever that means.
TBH, not that happy with the current state of browsers; too much telemetry and not enough customizability.
I use Vivaldi, because it just has a better UI and better usability features.
Firefox or Vivaldi on pc & notebook, Vanadium & Fennec on Android - Grapheneos.
Good to see another grapheneos user
librewolf on the desktop. works for me. Came from vivaldi, which is too big for my old laptop setup (takes ages to load). Using fennec on android. But, recently i needed a browser for android which allows a bookmark.html file to be imported (camera froze with sync) and couldn’t find one. everything today MUST go over the sync (cloud).
Same for me, but I’ve started using fulguris on android. I think it just uses the android webrenderer unfortunately, but it is open source.
i stand corrected: i just found an incredible browser, allowing html file import and a lot more!: soul browser. Now also testing as my main browser
vivaldi cus its just too gorgeous and so many things packed in face with heart eyes
Question, is there a way to silence all of Vivaldi’s updates? I’m ok with updating in the background but I had to uninstall it because it was so annoying
gahh idk about that one man, personally i dont mind the updates cus im always trying to have the newest features. sorry that was an issue.
Yeah, I guess I got used to other software keeping it out of sight/out of mind. At least on FF it just opens a new tab to let you know but it’s otherwise seamless so I was half-expecting the same. Maybe I’ll give it another go if I can find a solution or it’ll drive me nuts lol
I’m in web dev, so I have a bunch of browsers. My main driver on my desktop is Librewolf with a bunch of extensions that make browsing the web enjoyable at best and tolerable at worst. I use DuckDuckGo Lite as my main search engine on all my browsers.
Other browsers I use are Brave (main browser on my mobile device). Vanilla Firefox (for web dev or logging in as Librewolf isn’t best for many aspects of web development and many sites trip up when you try to log in with LW). Ungoogled Chromium when Brave is too slow (Brave is slowest of the ones I use).
I also read news from the Links terminal browser. Yes the original Links Browser, not Lynx, or elinks, or links2, or w3m, etc.
I don’t use Chrome, Opera, Vivaldi, Edge. I use Safari sparingly just to be sure some of my sites are working on it. I have played around with Tor, but generally don’t have a need to set anything up on the Dark Web at the time of this writing, so yeah.
I recently switched from Firefox to Arc, which is in closed beta right now. It has a great Tab management. If anyone is interested I can send you an invite :)
What is arc?
A fairly new browser based on chromium
Cool but chromium :(
Yeah it’s sad that almost all browsers are based on chromium. I also like the devtools of firefox more
Interesting. One of the only things I think Chrome does better than Firefox is the DevTools.
It’s probably because I’ve used them for the last years and am more used to firefox dev tools :)
But generally it’s not a big of a difference
Same here with Chrome. I mostly use Firefox for work, but I develop on Chrome because the majority of people use chrome or chromium browsers. I still test on Firefox though.
Firefox on PC and Android. DuckDuckGo is my default search engine now
DuckDuckGo is my default search engine now
How is that working for you? I am thinking of switching in my quest to get out of google stuff
Not op but I’m using DDG since many years and I feel like is continuously improving.
In case you miss google or you need a different search you can simply add !g to the search and search on google from DDG (it opens a google page)
Firefox, Epiphany web browser and midori. When I’m using windows I use Firefox.
I like Epiphany, but I think it leaks memory or something. After running for a while it starts taking tons of memory and closing tabs doesn’t seem to release it (the computer goes back to normal when it’s closed completely though). Maybe it’s just the Fedora build, I’m not sure
There’s also Otter Browser for another WebKit based choice, but it’s pretty rough and developed slowly
I haven’t experienced that. It’s been running smoothly when I’ve used it.
PC: Firefox (without the arkenson js yet) Android: Firefox too ^^
I really like that Firefox is one of the rare breeds on the mobile scene which provides some browser extensions too.
yo question ab firefox coming from dude who knows very little ab it, i watched a video browser tier list by eric murphy and he listed hardened firefox in S tier, do u reach hardened firefox by downloading configs for it off github? how reliable is it and do things tend to crash if u try to have many options at the same time (like an amalgamtion of stuff from different ppl in order to reached a specific desired outcome, in terms of options, security settings and look)?
