I only use Brave to hook into personally hosted shit through tailscale. Kinda nice having a separate phone app that’s just used to keep those addresses pulled up and separate from actual internet browsing.
Internet browser ❎ Intranet browser ✅
I only use Brave because some websites got my digital fingerprint with firefox lol
Librewolf, iceraven
and vivaldinot Vivaldi
Why not?
i personally love vivaldi but i’m gonna guess they are telling you to avoid it because it’s not open source. also chromium
i read it as icecraven
…yes, I whispered ^and vivaldi^

I hope we can get a recipe, that sauce looks yummy
Switched to LibreWolf a few weeks ago because of AI.
I use WebLibre (Gecko) with Brave Search
Can Brave Browser exist on Android though? That’s the only time I use Brave, lol
Don’t though.
I would love to use Firefox or IronFox on Android instead. However, it’s super insecure, so much so that even PG doesn’t recommend it. Not only that, they also run like shit, especially when used with a VPN. If it wasn’t for extension support, it would sadly just be inferior to chromium based browsers in every way, even for privacy. Firefox is the way to go on Linux, but on Android, wouldn’t recommend. Anyway, not that it’s going to matter much, if Google truly does start blocking use of GrapheneOS and lock down Android, then I’ll probably be switching to Droidian or Ubuntu Touch soon anyway

That’s some sad nonsense. Their “criteria” is some non-specific shit indistinguishable from slop generated from a butt.
Tor Browser is the only way to truly browse the internet anonymously.
Oh fuck the fuck right off with this, hackerman.
Firefox runs better and performs better than any bloated chrome-with-crypto-ads would even wishes to run. And unless we count as “has inbuilt plugin for Tor” as a security feature, and we will be insane to do that, there is no reason to suspect it’s somehow worse than chrome-but-our-ceo-simps-for-trump.
I don’t even use Brave’s Tor feature. Also, I don’t like Brave’s bloat but tbf, you can completely disable them all in the settings which is what I did. Btw, you don’t think that Google’s CEO simps for Trump? I hate the politics of Brave’s CEO, but not like big tech’s agenda is any better and Mozilla is subservient to Google whether they like it or not. Not to mention their constant pushing for adding AI features onto the vanilla browser.
I might try Cromite, but I’m hesitant to use web browsers maintained by one or two people since browsers constantly have security exploits that need patched quickly, something that a couple people can’t maintain on their own. If anything, I would use Vanadium if I had GrapheneOS but I’m stuck to LineageOS right now, lol
I guess it’s a matter of faith after all?
I love using Brave browser… swipes away crypto ad banner …because there is a massive focus… swipes away crypto ad banner …on privacy….
Privacy against big tech but brave is just an indie operation please give them your data 🥺
So my options for iOS seem to be Libre Wolf Firefox Duck duck go
🤔
there’s no other real browser on ios, everything is just a gui reskin of safari. afaik there’s no benefit to using anything else.
Let me introduce you to… Reynard! It is a gecko based web browser, it’s goal is to make browsers much more usable in older iOS although you still have to sideload it!
As farest as I know this is the first ever browser to use different web engine for iOS, it is insanely cool on-going project!

(Accidentally deleted my previous comment haha)
Kinda true. On iOS all browsers have to use the safari core as browser engine, but you still get the Firefox layer on top, most importantly account sync.
Like if I’m on the toilet, see an article I wanna read on lemmy, but it has too many ads, I just send the tab to my PC and read it later. Also bookmark syncing comes in very handy for me.You can install uBlock Origin Lite on Safari.
Fair, thanks for correcting me.
Is this an ad
yeah, pepsi paid me $7 to post it here!

it’s the opposite
What happened with /c/unix_surrealism?
Hosting instance ran out of disk space, collecting donations to resume operations.
Why wouldn’t they leave a donation link on that page :<
I bet they don’t even have MBAs! How do they expect to optimize their revenue funnel and drive quarterly growth‽
Zen Browser kicks ass.
I don’t trust it.
I’m curious why, as a zen user myself. What would you suggest as an alternative?
Firefox
Appeared too quickly, with too much promise and not enough community time
Care to say why?
I don’t know the details fully but isn’t it like one Dev just patching Firefox? The whole Zen mod store seemed like an obvious vector for bad actors to me. What if he’s on vacation when a patch drops for a zero day?
Browser is one of the most important and critical aspects of your system that houses a massive amount of critical data…
I have tried all the browsers that you can imagine and I stay with Firefox, it had catch me
I’ve used firefox for ages, but I still switched to waterfox recently. They promised to not push the AI crap on you, so that was enough for me. Also it’s just firefox with a blue logo lmao
Pale Moon.
Why do you prefer it?
I get Brave is still “chrome” I only use it on Android as most all android browsers suck or break in some way. On Linux (catchyos) I use https://zen-browser.app/
Ironfox is pretty good on Android
I have brave on Ios and if I’m correct it’s just using Apple’s safari webkit anyways. It’s been a few years since I compared browsers but back then it was the least shit, including firefox and firefox private.
Everything on Apple uses Safari webkit. I do not like apple. I was talking about android.
is this the one that requires you to log in? i tried one that looks just like that and i loved the design but forced sign-in is a deal breaker for me. how private can it be if it demands to know who i am?
Love the background writing.
Btw have you ever been to electric ladyland?
made it halfway along the watchtower
