A stealthy, minimalistic, custom build of Firefox for web scraping ๐ŸฆŠ
Camoufox is an open source anti-detect browser for robust fingerprint injection & anti-bot evasion.

I saw this browser on GitHub. Can it be used on a daily basis? How does it compare to Mullvad Browser or Librewolf?

The rule of thumb is that you're not going to just find some hidden gem super stealth browser. If it's not well-known in the privacy community, it's a scam and scraping tool.

Browsers take huge amounts of work, even FF forks. This seems like bait and until you find a researcher going out of their way to tell you to use it, don't use it.

Yes, it seems that this is still a new project, and there is not enough information about it to trust the developers.
