Does anyone know if Blockada mitigates this problem on Android?

Been using Libre Wolf, no issues so far. Fuck Firefox

[-] kilgore_trout@feddit.it 0 points 3 months ago

Librewolf is Firefox plus some light patches, and as such depends entirely from Firefox.

[-] DaveyRocket@lemmy.world -1 points 3 months ago

It looks like they have a team and it’s open-source. It’s a gamble, but I’m guessing the death of Firefox would probably be a boon, not a hinderance, depending on who supports what from there.

Well, if there was any doubt before, with the weird ToS p.r. dance they were doing last week, now we know, for sure.

I've already switched to LibreWolf on the desktop. Is there a good non-Firefox browser for Android available?

Any good browser suggestion??

That's chromium based. Having more firefox based browsers helps take away the dominate control Google has on browsers.

TIL. I only use it on mobile, got a good replacement that's data privacy-oriented?

[-] Bazoogle@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

lol, honestly, just Firefox. I know there's a lot of hubbub about Mozilla and Firefox with them changing their ToS, but you can disable all sponsored items, and anonymous. And even though they changed their ToS, I don't think they've changed anything. They've sold anonymized data for a while. People here don't seem to like data selling of any kind, but Firefox only collects anonymized data, and it's a free service.

The only two real options will be Chrome and Chromium based, and Firefox and Firefox based. For Firefox based that isn't firefox, you've got:

  • Librewolf
  • Mullvad
  • Zen
  • Floorp

If you google for other browsers, and find one you haven't heard of, there's a 99% chance it's Chromium based.
