Tried Ironfox yet?
Haven't heard of it, what's the deets?
It's a privacy hardened Fennec available from the GOS Accrescent app installation source. I only use Vanadium for sites that don't run in it.
Except Accrescent isn't owned by GOS or affiliated with them. Its just a recommended app store by GOS on top of GOS' own app store and in general for people not on GOS. Ironfox is also available directly from github and Obtainium can be used to install and update Ironfox from github along with other apps directly from github.
I use many software installation sources, including Obtainium from GitHub. I do not assign the same trust levels to each. E.g. F-Droid at least has some shallow level of review for the packages they build.
It's also on f-droid
Yes it is, but f-droid isnt as recommended as getting it from the source. F-Droid is fine but Obtainium with direct from github is better.
