Librewolf my beloved. Unfortunately not on mobile iirc
Use Mull
That's what I do. LibreWolf on desktop and Mull on Android, with FF Sync enabled between them. Works like a charm!
What about iOS ?
Safari is your only option as all iOS browsers are Safari. Also there are not as many apps as Apples ecosystem is locked and requires a lot of money to develop for. Add that to the fact that it is closed source and you have a anti freedom device. Apple also is bad about data collection despite there claims.
If you are willing to compromise I would recommend Betterfox as it breaks far fewer sites while still being better than the default Firefox profile.
Its better to just go through the settings yourself then rely on arkenfox. This just adds a middleman into the process of keeping your settings updated.
Have you seen the user.js, you have to change a lot of settings and you cannot keep up to date with them, secondly Arkenfox prefers you to go over their user.js by your self and their updater script has the -c flag to show you the difference between current user.js and new user.js
Overall it would be very difficult to manage something like this on our own as most things are not visible on the settings page of Firefox
In addition, if you use user.js then you essentially cannot change those settings at runtime (via about:config or otherwise), because your user.js will override the settings on next startup. Maybe that's desired for some, but good to keep in mind nonetheless.
I unironically run everything in VMs
me too
I know this is somewhat defeating of the privacy purpose but I use FF because of sync- is there an alternative that can use something like webdav to sync my bookmarks/history/etc between instances? e; i know floccus is around for bookmarks but i find history useful too
Librewolf supports Mozilla sync
:O
Can't recommend this. It broke couple sites that I frequently use when I tried it some time ago
Broken sites are a small price to pay for privacy
Contact the site owner and let them know. Tell them to test in Tor Browser too
I really doubt they would care about something like this. Even getting them to support firefox was an annoying process. I emailed them every month for six months until they added firefox support
That's some mad dedication
There's also IceCat, but it's less on the privacy side, and more on encouraging the use of LibreJS.
Whats the benefits of security and privacy using Firefox with Arkenfox rather than WaterFox, LibreWolf, Mullvad ?
Firefox Focus anybody?
It has proprietary blobs and telemetry
Proprietary boobs are my favourite
Bobs. They said bobs
I read between the limes on this one
