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?

    @Turd_Ferg PC (Linux): Librewolf for some things (fediverse, news outlets, mail providers, etc), Waterfox for other things (especially sites/platforms where I need to write Portuguese, because Librewolf’s “Resist Fingerprinting” breaks accent keys), upstream Firefox for more mainstream things (government services), as well as Lagrange for Gopher and Geminispace.

    Smartphone (Android): Fennec, with native Chrome active against my will for WebViews from certain apps (governmental and banking apps, for example) that require Chrome For My Security™.

    It’s been a while since I ditched Chromium-based browsers, although Firefox has some Chromium things inside its code. I’m waiting for whatever browsers that could bring third-party browser engines besides Chromium and Firefox-engine (yeah, there are Pale Moon, Basilisk, Safari/Webkit, among other browsers which are neither Chromium nor Firefox-based, but I’m talking about a browser as compatible as possible with features such as WebBluetooth, WebGL, WASM and other things as they can prove useful for personally-developed projects/self-hosted services).

    Tor Browser (daily driver) because I really hate surveillance capitalism. I have fallbacks but rarely need them. Can recc LibreWolf and Ungoogled Chromium.

    Librewolf is my daily driver. Ironfox on mobile. If I have to use a Chromium based browser, then I use Brave.

    Kagi as my search engine in case you were wondering 👀

    On Linux, I’m using Firefox as my main browser and Vivaldi as my secondary browser.

    On android, some of my devices have Firefox, some of them have Fennec F-Droid and the devices that don’t have very much storage space have Via Browser. If you’re wondering why I have both Firefox and F-Droid’s Fennec, it’s because I used to just use Fennec but then at some point F-Droid announced that Fennec was outdated and it was missing several security updates that were present in Firefox. I switched to Firefox on the devices I use browsers on more actively but I didn’t see a reason to switch all of them.
