I want to switch to a more privacy focused browser, would like to hear what yall use currently and why.
Edit: I’m currently using edge.
Edit: Thanks everyone for your input. I have decided to go with floorp (a firefox fork) with betterfox. Here’s my decision process,
- Firefox based browser
- To help with browser monopoly
- I really like the sidebery extension
- I chose floorp instead of ff or other ff forks because of the ease of customization
- I also tried zen browser but experienced a bug just from my short usage so I think it’s not mature enough for me currently, but I do like the project.
- Betterfox + extensions for better privacy settings
- Ublock Origin
- ClearURLs
- Decentraleyes
Did not choose to go with LibreWolf, Mullvad etc because I’m worried about site breakages.
@JustMarkov @dethada
Is Librewolf any different than Firefox with good privacy extensions?
Yes
How so? I already use both, I’m just curious
It’s just a hardened version of Firefox. You can archive this with Firefox, but it is a hassle.
@EherNicht
Based on their website i don’t see how.
Firefox with ublock (blokada on mobile), do not track, a few settings tweaks, and using ddg or startpage for search seems to be pretty much what librewolf is.
It is not. It is pretty much a completely tweaked Firefox.
Do not track request makes you stick out which results in easier tracking.
