I’m currently using firefox and thinking of switching, would love some more features and a better aesthetic, but I’m interested in what others are using!
Firefox + the following addons:
TWP
uBlock origin
Dark Reader
Consent-o-maticIs TWP “Translate Web Pages”? Android Firefox has a built-in feature for that, since like this version or so. 🙃
Yep.
But I like that better as I can summon it by my own will and feel like it can translate some pages better than others (detection is a bit spotty)
How has your experience with Content-O-Matic been? I noticed mixed reviews.
Have you tested any alternatives for handling gdpr pop-ups?
I’m on “I still don’t care about cookies”. As opposed to Consent-o-matic, it doesn’t attempt to opt-out, which makes it more reliable, but you want to use it together with Cookie AutoDelete.
uBlock has an “EasyList/uBO - Cookie Notices” filter that you can enable on both desktop and mobile, which is probably enough for most people.
Sometimes it works but simetimes it still has issues.
Firefox because Ublock Origin is the best ad blocker.
Firefox, especialy because of extensions like ublock, and sponsor block. But also because of features like total cookie protection. Where cross site 3rdparty cookies are sandboxed for each site.
And Read Outlout! So handy for all these news stories on Lemmy.
firefox, because ublock origin and sync with desktop/laptop pc: same bookmarks on both and sending tabs to other device when i need to.
Firefox, it has ublock origin
Firefox. Perfect? No. But we gotta fight the Chrome monopoly. And most (all, I’m pretty sure) other browsers for Android are Chromium based. Using one of those still hands Google control of the web.
I’m using Firefox too rn. I was using Vivaldi but I decided that it was time to abandon chromium.
Firefox because it works perfectly for me, and it’s customizable with extensions.

Firefox with a handful of extensions for day to day use
I keep Brave with custom configuration ready for when extra privacy is needed. Firefox based browsers on Android are currently missing site isolation so that’s what privacy guides recommends for the time being.

It might be cool to see something like Zen on Android, but I’m not sure what changes I’d like to see aesthetics / features wise. Brave looks fancier, but I find it annoying to use for a number of reasons. Off the top of my head
-
when you close a tab, the undo message stays for way too long and can’t be dismissed
-
Unable to disable chromecast
What Firefox extensions are you using on mobile? I have a few (e.g. uBlock Origin), but I’m always interested in hearing about other good ones.
uBlock Originis the main oneSearch by ImageandWeb Archivesare two others that I like to have on mobileI’d love to learn some more as well :)
Cool, thanks.

Firefox for the add-ons, sync, and other features, but I have set Firefox Focus as the default that most apps open pages in. From there I can open pages in regular Firefox if I need or want to. Firefox Focus acts as a sort of default private browsing mode.
Mull (available on F-Droid)…it’s like a hardened version of Firefox
Firefox. Everyone complains about it but it’s never given me any problems. Adblock works great!
I have to keep using Firefox for the mobile add-ons and because my account is synced with my desktop browser. I’m not willing to switch unless a better desktop/mobile pair comes along.
