I want to switch to a more privacy focused browser, would like to hear what yall use currently and why.
Edit: I’m currently using edge.
Edit: Thanks everyone for your input. I have decided to go with floorp (a firefox fork) with betterfox. Here’s my decision process,
- Firefox based browser
- To help with browser monopoly
- I really like the sidebery extension
- I chose floorp instead of ff or other ff forks because of the ease of customization
- I also tried zen browser but experienced a bug just from my short usage so I think it’s not mature enough for me currently, but I do like the project.
- Betterfox + extensions for better privacy settings
- Ublock Origin
- ClearURLs
- Decentraleyes
Did not choose to go with LibreWolf, Mullvad etc because I’m worried about site breakages.
librewolf on my laptop, firefox with ublock origin at work and on mobile
I’m using primarily LibreWolf at home too, but every now and again there are websites that won’t work with it. So I still keep Firefox around for that because I haven’t figured out how to add exceptions to specific sites for LW.
Might actually be a good privacy strategy though. The sites that break are probably the most invasive. So it could be better to run them on a different browser that’s what you normally use, perhaps with efforts to spoof fingerprinting. Other than not visiting the site, of course, but it’s a decision you gotta make.
