2 days agoI think a lot of people don’t know any of the controversy related to brave and just use it because they know it as the most private chromium browser

1·2 days agoAt 14 I started looking at gay furry art on reddit, just because it was really cute, not because I was bi or anything. That same year I had meet a really cool guy friend who I started to develop feelings for, so that was when I actually realized I was bi. Since that, when I was 18 I realized I was genderflux because I was hanging out at a friend’s party playing video games and I had the odd desire to only play as female characters. I did know that was a common trans experience at the time so I knew something was up.
From that first link it just looks like they give data to Google if you use the YouTube integration, which is something that you don’t have to activate, and also is an unavoidable prerequisite of such an integration.
3·9 days agoYeah I’ve been seeing this bug for years
Let’s Learn Everything is great. The hosts each research a science related topic each week and they explain it and discuss it on the show. It’s really interesting, quite fun.
Amberol or gapless depending on whether I want to have a built-in library
Beautiful! I might just make this my fedora desktop wallpaper!
5·1 month agoIt only recieves major updates every two years, which means it gets outdated over time. The themes included are great for beginners though.
I think the wii mii creation system is probably the best since there’s such an excessive amount of customization while being still very limited in scope that you can make some crazy stuff
3·2 months agoThat’s a really strange thing. I would assume the library gets a lot of people who don’t have their name in their email address
Currently I think the one that is the most exciting to me is Natsumi Browser, a modification for most firefox-based browsers with an interface similar to arc or zen browser. I used zen for months after it released, but every few updates some core functionality would break and they kept removing features that were essential to my workflow so I much prefer this as a modification on top of Floorp. I think the dev just does it as a hobby project, but there’s new useful features added frequently, and keybindings!

These are all the browsers I personally think are good and privacy-respecting. Sorry if I accidentally included too many options.
Desktop
Firefox-Based
Firefox
The standard for browsers where you aren’t the product. For maximum privacy it does require tweaking settings, but it is reasonably privacy-friendly out of the box. It has light customization options including a sidebar and customizable button placement, and can be much more heavily customized with user themes.
Librewolf (Most reccomended for privacy)
A custom version of Firefox with enhanced privacy by default. Comes with Ublock Origin installed.
Waterfox
A Firefox-based browser with some additional privacy features, enhanced speed, and additional features.
Floorp
A browser based on Firefox with much more advanced customization options and many additional features, like workspaces and web panels. Doesn’t add any additional privacy-focused features. They recently also added support for chrome extensions. This is my personal choice of browser (with the Natsumi modification).
Zen Browser
A Firefox-based browser with a sidebar+workspace workflow, and lots of stylistic changes and customizations that help put the focus on the webpage. Very nice and usable for productivity, but doesn’t add any additional privacy-focused features.
Chromium-Based
Ungoogled Chromium
It’s Chromium, but without Google. Pretty self-explanatory, it’s simple, and it works.
Vivaldi
An extremely customizable browser packed with a massive quantity of additional features that can be toggled and tweaked for varying needs and methods of usage. It supports MV2 extensions.
Helium
A chromium-based browser with enhanced privacy and speed. Comes with Ublock Origin pre-installed, and supports MV2 extensions. It’s a pretty new project.
Android
Firefox-Based
Firefox
The de-facto privacy-friendly browser, although for maximum privacy it does require tweaking settings. It (and its forks) are the only privacy-friendly browsers on android that support extensions.
Waterfox
A fork of Firefox with more private defaults, and extra bloat removed.
IronFox
A hardened private Firefox fork. Heavily focused on privacy and security, it sacrifices some usability for privacy.
Chromium-based
Cromite (Most reccomended for privacy)
A chromium fork with enhanced privacy and built-in ad blocking.
Vivaldi
Very customizable chromium-based browser. It does not come with an ad-blocker.
iOS
All browsers on iOS are limited to the WebKit engine which Safari is built on, so just use Safari. The benefits of other browsers on iOS are negligible.
