Who the fuck is still using Chrome?!
Everyone, they really don't care about ads as much as us.
Oh, you know. Just 3.6 billion fucking people (73% of web users). But definitely not you and me. I've been on Firefox since 1.0 (2004) and switched to Librewolf a few years ago when Mozilla lost it.
While we are making recommendations use IronFox for Android. Also, blah, blah, blah, Linux better, blah blah.
I've been using Fennec and it's been pretty solid as a Firefox replacement. Librewolf on my home PC and Vivaldi on the work machine.
Absolutely. I'm also a faithful IronFox user on my GrapheneOS devices. We're definitely preaching to the choir here, but I feel its always good to spread the good word. I tip my Fedora to you, good sir.
Dose IronFox have tab containers/profiles like the desktop version? I been searching for a fork that has it and I don't think the feature is on mobile yet.
That counts android (which never had adblock as a plugin) and or chrome based (edge, brave)?
