Firefox mobile with uBlock origin is a fucking godsend, the mobile web is nigh unusable without it because of ads.

[-] Lanthanae@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 1 year ago

Whenever I'm watching someone else use a browser and I see how many ads there are, I realize how great UBlock is.

[-] FishfoxNuro@pawb.social 8 points 1 year ago

It's also part of why I don't use apps for things like YouTube: I don't have to deal with ads if I just access the site like normal via Firefox.

If you want to put in a little effort: Youtube Revanced is the official Youtube app without ads

God tier is Firefox nightly with uBlock origin and shinigami eyes (isn't installable on other mobile Firefox apps)

Reject Manifest V3, return to fox browser.

[-] meow_d@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 1 year ago

i know this is a joke, but: firefox is still implementing manifest v3. the difference is that they're keeping WebRequest

[-] blahaj@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago

Yes, but they will keep supporting MV2 "for the foreseeable future", which means that all old extensions should keep working. It is going to be somewhat scary when they decide to remove MV2 support, but for now we are good.

Librewolf is great; ngl it feels like vanilla Firefox has gotten too comfortable pushing sponsored content as of late

[-] Lanthanae@lemmy.blahaj.zone 30 points 1 year ago

Tbf Mozilla needs money to keep doing good work, and I don't mind "paying" for Firefox like that when the only alternatives are "paying" by letting Google track and sell my personal data.

That is true. But honestly, when it comes to software I'd just rather be left alone, it's why I moved from Windows in the first place.

I totally wouldn't mind donating to Mozilla in some other way though.

[-] Lanthanae@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 1 year ago

I'm pretty sure they accept donations

Good to know, I'll be sure to donate then

what would I do without my cross-platform history, passwords, and addon syncing? Mozilla is a godsend <3

[-] areyouevenreal@lemmy.fmhy.ml 12 points 1 year ago

Already using FireFox. It's nice that it comes preinstalled on most Linux distros too.

[-] indite@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I wuv firefox :3

[-] PelicanPersuader@beehaw.org 10 points 1 year ago

I used to use Firefox but half the websites I visted were broken on it. Companies don't make their websites compatible with it anymore which really sucks. If Chrome kills adblocker, I'll switch back, but it's just annoying when you get to the middle of a transaction and the site stops working because the devs were too lazy to test on anything but Chrome.

[-] Gormadt@beehaw.org 10 points 1 year ago

I've been using Firefox since the days of Windows XP, I ain't gonna stop now.

[-] TenNinetythree@vlemmy.net 10 points 1 year ago

Already there!

[-] sounddrill@lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz 10 points 1 year ago

Mobile addons say hello

[-] Arystique@beehaw.org 9 points 1 year ago

I mean I use Firefox, but why is it a better alternative? (I think I started using it cause it doesn't stop screen sharing on discord)

[-] SKUNK@lemmy.blahaj.zone 41 points 1 year ago

Mainly because it's not a Chromium based browser. Chrome is making it hard/impossible to use adblock, and if Firefox were to die for whatever reason, Google would basically monopolize the way we interact with the internet (which it has almost done already)

[-] Khorgor666@feddit.de 8 points 1 year ago

I found Firefox WAY before i found Lemmy, no Chrome on my machines, UBlock Origin, Noscript, Facebook Container, Video Downloadhelper, Firefox lets one retake control
