I have an iPhone, and I have recently been using Brave. Firefox is a favorite.
Does it matter on an iPhone? Unless something changed, Apple only allows reskins of Safari.
It matters somewhat, in that you may be able to sync things between mobile and desktop if you use the ios version of your desktop browser
Kinda Brave/firefox can keep a lot of ads from bogging down things.
Firefox for Android as it’s one of the only mobile browsers with comprehensive addon support and helps to keep Google’s WebKit/Blink monopoly at bay.
I’ve been using Orion. A bit buggy but it offers proper extension support, including ublock origin (it supports Firefox and chrome extensions)
You’re on iPhone… They’re all the same Safari/WebKit browsers.
Unless you’re a EU user?
That’s kinda my understanding as well.
Brave/Firefox, although basically reskins, help keep ads at bay.
I like Firefox Focus.
Every time you close the app (swipe up on the app switcher) or use the trash button it cleans every bit of cached or stored data including cookies, so every time you open it you have a fresh browsing session and it’s harder to be followed around the web.
Obviously inconvenient for banking or the like, so I also have Firefox (regular) installed which stores my login sessions.
I forgot to mention a fringe benefit of Firefox Focus: I feel like it forces me to do a better job of not just opening a webpage and telling myself I’ll read it later (I never do). Since the session is ephemeral and the webpage will be gone if I don’t read it right away, I actually get down to reading the articles more often.
This may also be a side effect of Lemmy, though, since there’s less content here than on reddit.
Firefox
I use iceraven, a fork of Firefox. Though I’m unsure of its availability on iPhone as I’m an android user.
Vivaldi.
I use Mull. Unsure if it’s on iPhone though.
I’m trying Arc browser right now, quite cool with support for firefox and chrome extensions, but the extensions all broke after a week. Crummy experience. Brave is the best AFAIK.
I use Orion it allows Firefox and Chrome extensions which (kinda) work
Safari with content blockers, Firefox Focus, and Orion with uBO.
Was using DDG browser for awhile after Firefox. Started recently using Safari Privacy mode plus Wipr, an ad blocking extension, one time fee but the developer is privacy focused. Ad block test gets 100 score vs 70 on DDG or Firefox. Other peeps mention already but all browsers are just front ends for Safari on iOS, as far as I understand.
