[–] viewports@lemmy.ml 41 points 3 months ago

Just firefox really, never had any real issues

[–] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 28 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Firefox for Android doesn't use chrome and has extensions including adblockers

[–] runner_g@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 3 months ago

That also makes it the ideal YouTube app for Android

[–] Magister@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

There is like 2 browsers, Firefox, or all the chromium based ones?

[–] cmnybo@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 months ago

That's pretty much it for Android currently. There are a few more choices for PC.

There is a new browser in development called Ladybird, but a stable release is still years away and they are focusing on desktop support first.

Firefox. My daily driver is an iPhone and I just use Safari there, but we have uBlock Origin Lite now. But on Android it's Firefox with full fat uBlock Origin. As it happens, I'm on the Android device now! I love its keyboard so much. Apple couldn't make a keyboard to save their arse if it came to it.

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 2 points 3 months ago

I tried iOS for about 5 months and the absolute worst part was the horrendous keyboard...

[–] digger@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I use the one that's funded by Google.

[–] breakcore@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 months ago

I see what you did there

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 months ago

I primarily use Firefox

[–] JASN_DE@feddit.org 5 points 3 months ago

Define "best"?

[–] hexagonwin@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 3 months ago

i use fennec f-droid with ublock origin and numatrix

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 4 points 3 months ago

Netscape Navigator 1.0. I think there's probably an update for it now.

[–] Jack_Burton@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago

Ironfox is ok. Though it's not fully open source (the ui isn't) I use Vivaldi

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Waterfox. For really powerless machines dillo or "links2 -g."

For android I just use firefox.

[–] lemmus@szmer.info 3 points 3 months ago

Not much people know Iceraven, yet its pretty good android web browser I can trll. Extensions make it even better :)

[–] Oberyn@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

This Iceraven fork thad adds OLED dark mode

[–] mikedd@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Vanadium on phone and hardened Firefox on laptop.

[–] zemon@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

Iceraven for browsing, Ironfox for anything that screams "don't open this", Fennec for stored logins only and Cromite if I ever needed a Chromium browser.

[–] foremanguy92_@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Ironfox I think

EDIT : typo

[–] rabbitcat@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 months ago

IronFox with ublock origin

[–] zer0bitz@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I've liked to use Fennec for few months now.

[–] rulray@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

DuckDuckGo, i like the "burn everything" animation (and functionality, but mostly the animation)

[–] c0dezer0@programming.dev 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Is it open source though?

Edit: Yes it is. https://duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/open-source/opensource-overview

[–] cdzero@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

Firefox and DuckDuckGo.

[–] DFX4509B@lemmy.wtf 1 points 3 months ago

IronFox for Android, at least until Google blocks it, and LibreWolf for desktop.

waterfox is pretty good.

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

waterfox seems to have a partnership with ecosia which shares your information with microsoft

[–] radswid@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Mull for everyday-use or Vanadium for pages which need a chromium-based browser

[–] pogmommy@lemmy.ml 7 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Isn't mull discontinued? Work on it is continuing as IronFox

[–] radswid@feddit.org 2 points 3 months ago

oh, thx, I missed that news. time to change

[–] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago

I thought Fennec was the continuation of Mull, but I checked and you're right, it's IronFox. Am dummy.

[–] BrikoX@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago

Best is subjective and recommendations would depend on your use case. Iceraven is my primary.

[–] thermogel@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Ironfox & Vanadium as main search, and Tor as the default, for opening links.

[–] sudoer777@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Vanadium for web apps, Cromite with auto delete for random websites, and IronFox with various plugins for web searches

[–] bluemoon@piefed.social 1 points 3 months ago

StartPage browser and one simply named Browser with a blue shield icon

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Every browser that I know of is open source. But I use Orion!

[–] NeedyPlatter@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 months ago

I love Orion! It's a little clunky but I love being able to use the full UBlock Origin.

[–] 9skyguy0@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

I use Fennec F-Droid with uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, Decentraleyes, and HTTPS Everywhere.

Though sometimes I've contemplated switching to the Guardian Project's Firefox Klar

[–] claudiom@blendit.bsd.cafe 1 points 3 months ago

On Android, I use Firefox. If Falkon were available on Android, I'd use that as well. I use both of those on Linux and BSD.

[–] KarnaSubarna@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Firefox since v1.0.1 RC :)
