Original question by @Turd_Ferg@sh.itjust.works

Firefox is messing around with AI, changed their TOS on user data and now the google monopoly case. Basically Im wondering if there is a good firefox alternative?

    I use Librewolf 90% of the time.

    10% Edge (but with ShutUp10 ran over it) for HDR Youtube and if adblocking is broken on one browser at the moment.

    I’m very uncomfortable with having all web browser engines owned by Americans.

    Firefox. Fast and light as usual. I see people say it isn’t and I just don’t get it.

    Linux, compared to chromium its the same speed, but with better features of course.

    Tor Browser. Using the internet raw feels dirty at this point.

    Yes, I theoretically could use something else and a standard proxy, but it works worse for the same thing. I can always donate or contribute bandwidth if fairness is a concern, and just having a bunch of normal traffic flowing through is part of the design.

    For android, IronFox ( from their repository that I added to F-Droid ) or I started recently using the DuckDuckGo ( also from F-Droid ) for those rare websites that don’t work on IronFox ( like justtherecipe or just earlier justbeamit ).

    On my laptop running Linux, I have the default Firefox, an ungoogled chromium for websites that don’t work on FF, and TOR.

    As for my desktop running win10 ( and definitely Linux by the end of the summer, I hope ), I have FF, Librewolf, Tor, and just recently got Mullvad VPN’s browser. Probably shouldn’t have that many browsers as once, but I’m an idiot.

    I still use Firefox despite Mozilla because fuck Google.

    I tried Librewolf, but YouTube (yeah, I know) ran like crap on it for some reason.

    I use Firefox, but tbh I don’t know why. Chrome is usually always faster when I have tested…

    I think it’s def nice to give attention to the only other big browser that doesn’t use chromium under the hood
