    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.

    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.

    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.

    Firefox. I ain't using anything else.

    I'm using Firefox too rn. I was using Vivaldi but I decided that it was time to abandon chromium.

    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

    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.

    I"ve been using Fennec as my default.

    Firefox. Everyone complains about it but it's never given me any problems. Adblock works great!

    Mull (Firefox)

  • source
  • [–] 8 points 2 years ago

    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

    Mull & brave

    I'll get killed here.

    Opera. Works pretty well with always on desktop mode (scaling) and has a nice UI. I also occasionally use the built-in VPN to bypass my DNS blocking quickly.

    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.

    I'm using Vivaldi.

    I use Mull (hardened firefox) and Cromite (chromium but a bit hardened and an ad-blocker)

    Went from Firefox to Brave, because the UX is better by a longshot. Also supports accountless sync.

    Kiwi browser! It's the best!! Built in ad blocker, privacy respecting, can use extensions, very customizable, and so much more!

    Firefox for general use. TOR browser (Firefox) for everything else. Privacy, security, and ad blocking are paramount.

    Iceraven (firefox fork that lets me do more with it) and Mull.

  • source
  • [–] 3 points 2 years ago

    Mull with plenty of extensions and changes in about:config and JavaScript off by default.

    Vanadium if on GrapheneOS if more features needed (i.e. JavaScript), barring that, Mulch appears to be equivalent.

    I use chrome (because of work) Firefox and duckduckgo.
