Stop using Opera Browser and Opera GX

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Nothing. Ideally you'll take a privacy hardened fork though, like Fennec or LibreWolf.
Can you elaborate? I looked at the page for LibreWolf and as best as I can tell they just change some default settings and add Ublock as a pre installed extension.
Yes, LibreWolf is basically just Firefox with tweaked default settings.
I tried using hardened Firefox before moving on to use LibreWolf. Manually hardening Firefox is arguably more powerful than what you'd have with LibreWolf out of the box, but the effort involved in making those changes in the settings and remembering what they are (what they were by default, and what they were changed to) makes it hard to maintain.
Do you mean across devices? I don't think it changes the settings when it updates but i could be wrong.
Back when I tried it, I only had it in one device--which is great, since I dunno if I can do it on more than one device, let alone worry how a hardened Firefox mobile would even look like.
I actually don't remember if the settings change with updates. But I suppose they don't (as they don't either with Librewolf). What I meant with "hard to maintain" is basically keeping note that the hardened Firefox config doesn't behave like vanilla Firefox (and isn't expected to). Making some temporary changes to accommodate a "necessary evil" website, you'd have to make note what setting you "temporarily" have to change it to, what the hardened config should be for that setting, and most importantly: remembering to change it back to the hardened config.
So, I guess it's not really a matter of maintaining the config than being aware of all those config changes (from default). With LibreWolf, I'm just brushing it off as "yeah, that's how LibreWolf works."
For android there's iceraven and mull.
Isn't fennec on android?
Yes.
I never used fennec.
waterfox is great too
Floorp is also great
