Firefox

victorz@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 22h

Same, desktop and mobile.

Also DuckDuckGo browser on mobile because it opens a tab in that automatically when I do a search from the home screen search bar on my Pixel phone. But I never log in to any services on that browser. Treating it as a perpetual incognito browser.

LibreWolf (Firefox fork)

Reygle@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 22h

Same, almost exclusively- at work and home.

aim4harmony@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 22h

Same. Love it. ❤️

djdarren@piefed.social · 1 pts · 9h

Same, where it's available.

On my phone it's Waterfox, on my iPad, Firefox. And have FF sync active on all of them.

I love Librewolf and wish it was also on Android.

UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 10h

I like librefox the best so far. Waterfox didn't work out for me as well.

I use helium, based on a recommendation from a user here. I used to use brave, but the peter thiel aspect made me ick.

determinist@kbin.earth · 9 pts · 21h (1 reply)

Librewolf, Vivaldi, and ungoogled chromium on desktop.

Waterfox, Iceraven, and Mull on mobile.

anon6789@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 20h

Ooo... Another Iceraven user!

Once Kiwi stopped getting updates, that was the next best thing I found. Fennec was a close second.

Zen Browser. At this point I'm using it almost exclusively for the glance feature, which loads a page in an overlay above the current tab. This is incredibly useful in webmail for short-term page visits, like email verification links, etc.

iceberg314@slrpnk.net · 1 pts · 21h

I'm thinking about trying zen again in the near future. At the time it seemed a little "too innovative" for me, but idk. I've been brower hopping a bit, because sometimes thing don't work of Brave because of how much stuff I have it set up to block

LibreWolf on PC. Like Firefox but with stronger protections and I love it. I used Firefox for years, but growing concerns over AI integration and Mozilla made me try it, and I'm not going back.

IronFox on Android. Works great, has good privacy controls like LibreWolf does, and websites work. I used to use Cromite, but switched due to ethical concerns over chromium and the fact that many websites were broken on that browser, even after enabling JavaScript and cookies. I was basically locked out of my college Microslop account because login was broken until I switched. Also, go to hell Microslop.

Edit: Also Tor Browser on both PC and mobile. I hate using it on websites with ads though (like seriously, how can anyone without a blocker handle such a bombardment day to day?), so I often use LibreWolf or IronFox instead.

Firefox+uBO+BetterFox

daggermoon@piefed.world · 5 pts · 20h

Waterfox

Tenderizer78@lemmy.ml · 5 pts · 11h

Stock Firefox.

ohshit604@lemmy.halstead.host · 4 pts · 20h

People specifying mobile browsers should specify operating system along side them, essentially all iOS browsers use the WebKit engine.

myszka@lemmy.ml · 4 pts · 17h

Qutebrowser. It's a bare chromium engine (QtWebEngine) with some very neat vim bindigs. I even have a key sequence to toggle my proxy!

Malica@lemmy.zip · 3 pts · 18h

Duck duck go

Ripley_Tripley@lemmus.org · 3 pts · 17h

Search engine: I go back and forth between DuckDuckGo and Startpage

aim4harmony@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 22h

Fennec (with Betterfox and uBlock, etc.) and IronFox on mobile.

LibreWolf and Brave Origin as a backup on desktop pc.

calmblue75@lemmy.ml · 3 pts · 20h

Firefox, falkon, librewolf, tor.

monovergent@lemmy.ml · 3 pts · 20h

Desktop: Librewolf, Chromium as a fallback

Mobile: Vanadium on devices with GOS; adblocking via DNS. Cromite for my secondary phone and degoogled but not GOS tablet.

wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 21h

Firefox on desktop as I haven't taken the time to migrate to a fork like Librewolf. Ironfox on mobile.

uBlock Origin on both, Rethink DNS on mobile as a local VPN style ad blocker across all apps.

megane_kun@lemmy.zip · 3 pts · 10h

Desktop: Waterfox, Ungoogled Chromium

Mobile: Ironfox

On the desktop, I moved from vanilla (but hardened) Firefox to Librewolf to Floorp and then to Waterfox. Ungoogled Chromium is for the times some stubborn website refuses to work with Firefox (and its forks). For mobile, I only have Ironfox and if websites don't work there, I just get my ass to the desktop.

Mullvad on my desktop. They don't have a mobile app available, unfortunately.

nathan@piefed.alphapuggle.dev · 2 pts · 21h

Librewolf + Natsumi, used to use Zen but they got some wild ideas about how windows should work and I dipped

Blizzard@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 21h

LibreWolf and Vivaldi on Desktop, Vanadium and IronFox on mobile.

likebudda@reddthat.com · 1 pts · 2h

floorp on desktop. The developers are a team of Japanese students and it works well enough. I've had weird right click behavior after some of their many updates but it syncs with mozilla just fine.

Bluegrass_Addict@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 21h

telnet

brave for most things.

firefox when there is something that brave can't handle.

(that is on my mint linux computer)

on my iphone it's brave then as a backup it's safari

superduperpirate@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 21h

Home: Firefox, plus Opera for specific tasks I don’t want tied to Firefox usage

Work: Firefox, plus Edge for one M365 specific task that simply refuses to cooperate with Firefox

Mobile: Firefox, plus Orion for misc tasks that I’d rather not do with Firefox

sfxrlz@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 6h

Waterfox with sidebery, ubo and vimium c as essential extensions

veggay@kbin.earth · 1 pts · 21h

I tried Librewolf but found the restrictions for my own privacy too annoying as it constantly broke stuff and gave me extra work so I went back to Firefox and customized the privacy settings. I know I could've done that with Librewolf too but I found it more annoying to work with unfortunately x_x And I have Ungoogled Chrome as my backup

kibiz0r@midwest.social · 1 pts · 19h

Mobile: Orion

Work laptop: Chrome (mandatory)

Everything else: Firefox

Brave. I know some people don't like it because of all the crypto nonsense, but I've never enabled any of that.

I really like it it's built in ad and content blockers. Kinda random, but I love that you can block YouTube shorts. Idk, I just don't like YouTube shorts or other short form videos like tik tok or Instagram
