I use geh Firefox forks mull and fennec, I occasionally use vanadium. I just like privacy but tor is overkill for me
Firefox because it’s one of the last browsers against the Chromium monopoly.
Also UBlock Origin is wayy better on Firefox, even before Google forced their version of Manifest v3 on all Chromium based browsers.
And on android, Firefox is the only browser that allows installing ublock-origin and user scripts
That’s actually not true. There’s also Kiwi Browser
Ah yes, I think I heard of it ages ago; though it’s based on chromium so add blocking may stop working in 6-12 months,
No. It is already in effect for over half a year.
It won’t compleatly stop working but it makes it way more useless
Firefox, and ill continue to use it for as long as possible. No thanks Chromium.
Firefox on desktop and mobile. Better privacy and more trustworthy than a browser tied to a billion dollar corp.
Firefox, on my desktops and my phone. Several reasons:
- It’s relatively trustworthy.
- It uses the only non-WebKit-derived browser engine still in active development. Monoculture is bad.
- It supports uBlock Origin, and will continue to do so next year.
Firefox FTW!
I can’t imagine using any Chromium browser when ad-blockers stops working.
It supports uBlock Origin, and will continue to do so next year.
Wait its going to be unsupported after?
In Chromium and derived browsers, yes. It already doesn’t work in Safari and presumably other WebKit-derived browsers. Firefox will soon be the only browser capable of running a truly effective ad-blocking extension.
Firefox gang 😎 I don’t get the hate, the browser has great for decades
Firefox on PC and Android. DuckDuckGo is my default search engine now
DuckDuckGo is my default search engine now
How is that working for you? I am thinking of switching in my quest to get out of google stuff
Not op but I’m using DDG since many years and I feel like is continuously improving.
In case you miss google or you need a different search you can simply add !g to the search and search on google from DDG (it opens a google page)
Great, occasionally have to switch search engines to get certain kinds of results but that’s true with Google as well
I tried that for quite a while but ultimately gave up. For many (technical or non-English) topics, I found no fitting result of my search on the first page.

I use Firefox.
It’s 90% because I remember the days of Internet Explorer and how they had a monopoly and could do whatever they liked - and they did. It was pretty common to have to write two versions of code so that it would work on IE as well as other browsers.
These days Edge, Chrome, Opera, Brave, Vivaldi, pretty much all the major browsers except Firefox all use the Chromium engine, which puts them in a similar position as IE were in during the 90s and early 2000s. It scares me, so I use Firefox.
PC: Firefox (without the arkenson js yet) Android: Firefox too ^^
I really like that Firefox is one of the rare breeds on the mobile scene which provides some browser extensions too.
I just wish they’d add all the extensions to firefox android… and i’d like card style tabs too but i can live without them.
Definitely agreed, but at least they provide you with the essentials.
It’s kinda weird to me that they still haven’t added an oled theme, now that I think about it.
Oh, really? Damn you’re right, I absolutely forgot about it. XD
yo question ab firefox coming from dude who knows very little ab it, i watched a video browser tier list by eric murphy and he listed hardened firefox in S tier, do u reach hardened firefox by downloading configs for it off github? how reliable is it and do things tend to crash if u try to have many options at the same time (like an amalgamtion of stuff from different ppl in order to reached a specific desired outcome, in terms of options, security settings and look)?
firefox.
nearly every other browser out there except Safari is just chromium with a coat of paint, and i am not a fan of monopolies.
Firefox for me.
I used to be a Chrome guy for ages but made the switch a few years back after I noticed Chrome was getting a bit bloated.
Just normal Firefox? I used to be a chrome fanboy before learning about the privacy movement
Yeah, just regular Firefox with a few add-ons like adblockers and script blockers and such. It’s got a pretty seamless sync with Firefox on my mobile too.
You have good taste. Fox is the best browser
Been using Firefox since it came out 18 years ago. Tried a few others for a bit, but always ended up back with the fox. Using it on all my computers and devices. Tried all kinds of plug-ins, currently using ublock, no-script, privacy badger, bloody vikings!, Bitwarden and… I guess that’s more or less it.
I do have to use Edge a bit for work, just because of some systems that doesn’t really work on Firefox and I don’t want to use Chrome.
Firefox, and have done for the past 20 years
On desktop: Firefox On Android: Firefox
The extension support is the killer feature, and the open source+supporting a diverse web ecosystem is a close second.
I’m Firefox on desktop and Android as well.
For me, I care about privacy and tracking. I use Unlock Origin, which imo is the best ad block and tracker system.
Mozilla is also non-profit FOSS, so I trust them far more than other browser makers.
AdBlock and privacy blockers on mobile are a lifesaver
Firefox mostly. I want multiple rendering engines to be viable. Plus it has the plug ins I want on Android and still syncs to desktop. The one problem is chromecasting to the tv from windows. I wish there was a plug in that would let me do that.
This is basically my reasons exactly. I use edge as a backup when a page doesn’t work in Firefox, but use Firefox primarily because I don’t want the web to be defined by blink’s implementation. Plugins on Android, while limited, are unbeatable.
What plug ins are you using?
I use Dark Reader and Ublock Origin
