Librewolf is a good option just don’t go for Waterfox.

I’d go with LibreWolf.

A few years ago, Waterfox was purchased by System1, and advertising company. It also collects more user data. Edit: Looks like the dev bought it back. I’d still recommend LibreWolf though.

In my experience, LibreWolf is a good balance between privacy and functionality. I’ve never had problems with LibreWolf.

Bold. Bold to ask about Firefox alternatives on Lemmy.

Might as well criticise Linux while you’re at it.

What problem are you trying to solve?

I’ve heard Mull is good on mobile and Mullvad Browser is probably good on desktop. I just use Firefox on both though since it solves my problems.

I chose Floorp over regular Firefox but I’m still giving it a try, however it’s working fine and I like the esthetic (big thing since I use it a lot), the only problem till now I got is I can’t send tabs or share something with my phone since there’s no Floorp for android

i use librewolf on pc and mull on android

I am happy with Librewolf, I can’t tell about the others since Librewolf kept me satisfied since I started using it.

I also use Librewolf on Desktop and Mull on Android Mobile. I’m very happy with the setup.

I’ve used most major firefox forks, floorp is easily my favorite. the extra customization options they’ve added are very nice to have, and the sidebars are very useful.

I have been using Librewolf for several months now, and I am quite happy with it. In terms of user privacy, Librewolf by default has some strict settings enabled, like Resist Fingerprinting. Resist Fingerprinting does cause some minor problems, like incorrect timezones, but there is a workaround, as stated on the Librewolf website.

LibreWolf is good but requires setup to start using it (for me anyway). I like to keep history and open previous tabs. Also need to enable something for itch.io to load Godot games.

Mercury is worth checking out - it’s based on Librewolf but has additional privacy and performance patches.

I use icecat and it’s pretty nice, main issue is you have to manually approve all JavaScript scripts and cross-site requests manually, so it makes visiting almost any website for the first time a pain in the ass.

Luckily most stuff is concentrated to a few sites and I use private frontends liberally so it’s not a huge pain.

Chrome

I’ve been using waterfox, it’s been nice 👍

Floorp if you like Firefix Vivaldi or Thorium if you like chrome

• lynx is super fast. Sure it’s command line and does not display images.
• If you need images netsurf can do that.
• I personally use Wolvic on XR headset and compiled it for the Lynx R1 just this week.

Finally if you want to make your own browser I can recommend browser.engineering

PS: otherwise I’m using Firefox with Vimperator so I can’t help much there. I do think Firefox, and Mozilla behind it, is not perfect but provides a better alternative than Chromium based browsers. I also do worry that if nobody does use Firefox, or at least support Mozilla, somehow then it will simply not exist anymore and thus all alternatives relying on it, e.g Waterfox or LibreWolf, will not be viable anymore.

Anyone know of any Firefox forks on the play store other than Waterfox? Thanks
