Original question by @Turd_Ferg@sh.itjust.works

Firefox is messing around with AI, changed their TOS on user data and now the google monopoly case. Basically Im wondering if there is a good firefox alternative?

    I still use Firefox despite Mozilla because fuck Google.

    I tried Librewolf, but YouTube (yeah, I know) ran like crap on it for some reason.

    Firefox, both on desktop and Android.

    If there is a good alternative that’s both available on Linux desktop (Fedora) and Android… AND can install uBlock origins (without manifest 3 limitations) then I’m all ears.

    I use Librewolf 90% of the time.

    10% Edge (but with ShutUp10 ran over it) for HDR Youtube and if adblocking is broken on one browser at the moment.

    I’m very uncomfortable with having all web browser engines owned by Americans.

    Tor Browser. Using the internet raw feels dirty at this point.

    Yes, I theoretically could use something else and a standard proxy, but it works worse for the same thing. I can always donate or contribute bandwidth if fairness is a concern, and just having a bunch of normal traffic flowing through is part of the design.

    I use Librewolf on my PC and I use Brave on my phone (it’s the only way I can use a uBlock on IOS)

      Orion on iOS supports uBO too. It’s from the Kagi search engine people. I’ve been using it for a while now, and I like it a lot.

        I knew that Orion supported Firefox and Chrome add-ons, but for some reason I assumed that they won’t work unless it was something I could find on the iOS App store. 😅 I’m def going to add uBO to Orion, Brave’s CEO is such a pos and I’ve always felt icky using it but there wasn’t a good mobile alternative.

          I won’t use Brave for the same reasons, but not having uBO was the worst part of switching to iOS until Orion released.

    I use Firefox, but tbh I don’t know why. Chrome is usually always faster when I have tested…

    I think it’s def nice to give attention to the only other big browser that doesn’t use chromium under the hood

    Mullvad Browser on desktop (Tor Browser minus Tor, developed by the Tor project)

    IronFox on mobile to replace Mull (RIP DivestOS)

    Ungoogled Chromium if a website absolutely requires Chrome
