Me, I have a low threat model so I mainly try to stay away from proprietary stuff when possible (Chrome, Edge ect) I use an eclectic mix of browsers.

I use Vivaldi (I know it’s not entirely FOSS but I like the customizability of it), for my amnesiac browsers I use Firefox Focus on Android, and LibreWolf on PC, and for when I want as much anonymity as possible I use Tor with Orbot active routing traffic to Switzerland.

I used to use Brave Browser a lot because I like the user interface but I kinda got turned off by all the crypto stuff they’ve been peddling. And as far as I know, Bromite hasn’t been updated in quite some time (please elighten me if I’m wrong about that I’ve been out of the loop for a while) , and I was weirded out by the developer’s statement “I’ll get around to it sometime.”

Mull is great but very slow to search imo, when I search for something it takes a long time to load. Or it takes a long time to load a website. It could be internet speed but other browsers work just fine,and I’ve tested Mull on other WiFis.

I sometimes also use DuckDuckGo but the search results are so bad that I just find myself searching google to find what I want. No offensive if anyone uses those I personally just haven’t found much use out if them.

So what browsers do you use for privacy and security?

Edit: Sorry for the long post and edited for clarity.

    Thank you :) I had switched to mulch in the interim but it’ll be nice to have a drop in replacement.

      I also used Mulch as an alternative to Bromite before discovering Cromite some days ago :)
