The Firefox ToC discussion pushed me down the browser engine rabbit hole (again). Have you had a chance to daily drive some really good but obscure web engine that is not Gecko (Firefox), WebKit (Apple) and Blink (Chromium)? How viable is it for a complete switch - this includes banking, chatting, logging into websites, etc.
Edit: Added link to the Firefox discussion to give better context to my question.
Is Arc considered obscure?
Falkon for clearweb Librewolf for Tor Netsurf for i2p
Isn’t accessing TOR network from any other browser than Tor Browser a serious anonymity risk?
Cannot wait to try Ladybird in a somewhat stable form.
On one of my OSes, I still use Brave.
holy shit fearless freep
Brave is a series scam company.
Yeah; unfortunately on that particular computer, it’s the only modern browser that still functions. I don’t trust it with anything.
If the question had been “what trustworthy browsers do you use?” I wouldn’t have mentioned it.
No real data to backup this claim other than complaints about their addons which can be disabled, and their CEO doesn’t have the best morals and principles. Like we all believe the exact same things everyday all day.
Multiple highly reputable non profits and other sources show the browser itself performs as one of the best when it comes to privacy. Leave the negativity against Nestle.
If you need or want to use a Chromium browser, Brave seems to be the best, at least according to https://privacytests.org/.
I’ve used librewolf and it seems good but I’m not a browser expert.
Deskstop Mullvad and librewolf
Android fennec
Fennec (Firefox based)
Articfox librewolf
I decided on LibreWolf for work, Mullvad for sensitive search such as places near me, Firefox for random stuff and Tor for piracy sites. I’m currently looking to replace Firefox as well
seamonkey but it’s pretty hard to use without much love nowadays with so many incompatible websites. It’s a perfect mail client tho.
Just get Firefox ESR with arkenfox, that should be enough.
I’ve been using IronFox on mobile since Mull went away, but I’m ready to hear why that’s a bad option from anyone who knows better.
So far its worked very similarly to Mull, in that I’ve had no issues with it so far. I don’t do banking or financial shit on my phone though, so I can’t comment on how well it works for that functionality.
I’ve been using Orion on iOS for a while. It’s not bad.
They are porting to Linux was just announced not long ago… however dont know how long that will take. I am just gonna keep using FF until I can try Orion.
I use qutebrowser, it’s a keyboard driven browser that uses QtWebEngine (based on Chromium).
Internet Explorer 11
(just kidding)
