    No, because I haven’t used mainline Firefox in years.
    I’m pretty happy with LibreWolf on desktop and IronFox (available on Accrescent btw!) on Android (GrapheneOS)

    Unfortunately it’s still much less secure than Chromium, but I want and need a proper adblocker to maintain my freedom online. And I’m definitely not using Brave…

    The only kinda usable Chromium browsers are Ungoogled Chromium and Trivalent. I think I might try building Trivalent on macOS at some point. Maybe also gonna apply some patches from Thorium, as long as they don’t compromise security.

      Any thoughts on Vivaldi?

        No thoughts on privacy, but I have been using Vivaldi for many years now and it’s good. Pretty customizable if that’s your thing.

        Well it’s proprietary and in my opinion extremely bloated.

        I use Waterfox as my primary and Vivaldi as my secondary browser for when a site just really wants a Chromium based browser…it’s great, Chrome minus Google, plus a few nice extras. For those old enough to remember when Opera was a popular alternative browser (before getting bought up and turned to garbage) – Vivaldi is from the guy who made Opera.

      What does that mean?
