Or even better, a fork of Firefox which disable all that telemetry crap and bundle with uBlock Origin : LibreWolf.
What about brave ???
Brave? 😅

Im really confused by this sentiment. Ive been using Firefox since like 2007 and I was just a teenager who didn’t know any better.
Its been working fine for 16 years now.
Damn you stuck with it during it’s trash years, too?
It wasn’t even acceptable until pretty recently, and it’s still missing a lot of QoL features that make me keep Vivaldi around (except on my Linux machines, those just run Fox cause Vivaldi isn’t available.)
What are you talking about? Firefox has always been very much acceptable for me. What qol features are you missing?
Is there a firefox based browser like brave? And preferably without cryptobro bullshit?
I heard mullvad is looking promising but no android app (yet?)
Umm… just use firefox?
On PC and Android, you can get privacy extentions like uBlock Origin that blocks most ads and trackers. What about firefox do you not like?
On Android, I personally use Fennec, which is a fork of Firefox maintained by the same non-profit organization but without any Google-Play shennanigans.
so fennec is literally the same as firefox, but available in f droid?
Stumbled over that last week. There is a company where I buy nearly all my computer stuff from, and I’m a customer for more than 20 years.
I wanted to order parts for a high-end PC, but simply could not add the motherboard to the shopping cart. Everything else was already in there. I called them, and they asked me if I used Firefox. And they told me in no uncertain terms that Firefox was dead and would no longer be supported for “safety and security reasons”, I should use Chrome or Edge instead.
If their site is too stupid to cope with Firefox, why the heck does it not tell me about this upfront, e.g. when I try to enter an item into the shopping cart?
LOL I work in IT for a rather large company and we are supposed to use FF because it’s actually more secure and is more reliable than chromium browsers.
I committed to opera a long time ago and now I’m too many saved passwords deep on shit websites I’ve not visited in 4 years to make the change.
No way to export that stuff to Firefox or a Firefox derivate?
how exactly does chrome not respect my privacy?
and i don’t just mean “because it’s google and google is an ad company”. what specifically is it sending to some internet server that firefox doesn’t? both the firefox and address bars send what you type into them to a search provider. as near as i can tell, firefox’s committment to privacy is to say “we protect your privacy” while doing all the same stuff that chrome does.
Brave + privacyBadger is about the best you can do. If you turn all the features on it anonymizes your plugins and screen res returns enough that you can’t be identified by a unique configuration.
It supports TOR for private browsing natively.
I don’t trust them more than Mozilla, but the do a better job at keeping my browsing habits out out the hands of my ISP and the sites I visit.
