Firefox is messing around with AI, changed their TOS on user data and now the google monopoly case. Basically Im wondering if there is a good firefox alternative?
Firefox for Linux and Android
Firefox until there is consensus about which is the correct replacement. In FOSS, dispersion is dangerous.
LibreWolf, IronFox
I still use Firefox despite Mozilla because fuck Google.
I tried Librewolf, but YouTube (yeah, I know) ran like crap on it for some reason.
Firefox on Linux, Fennec on Android

Vivaldi for years now. I’m genuinely surprised it doesn’t get more attention. Its tab management is god tier.
Firefox. Fast and light as usual. I see people say it isn’t and I just don’t get it.
Linux, compared to chromium its the same speed, but with better features of course.
Floorp for pc and fennec for mobile
I use exactly the same browsers as you, can recommend.
The google as default firefox engine was a shit move from mozilla in terms of etfics and financial independance. Then again, if the google money goes away, their existence is at risk, isn’t it?
Zen on desktop. Still using Firefox on android.
Edit: on my computer only as I don’t surf the web with my phone (I don’t know if there is a mobile version of Waterfox)
The fact that Waterfox is owned by Advertising Company System1, doesn’t bother you?
https://www.waterfox.net/blog/a-new-chapter-for-waterfox/ - looks like that isn’t the case any more. Good news!
It is not anymore as far as I know, right?
it hasn’t been since 2023
Zen Browser on desktop, IronFox on mobile.
I use Floorp on PC and Ironfox on mobile.
Tor Browser. Using the internet raw feels dirty at this point.
Yes, I theoretically could use something else and a standard proxy, but it works worse for the same thing. I can always donate or contribute bandwidth if fairness is a concern, and just having a bunch of normal traffic flowing through is part of the design.
I use Librewolf 90% of the time.
10% Edge (but with ShutUp10 ran over it) for HDR Youtube and if adblocking is broken on one browser at the moment.
I’m very uncomfortable with having all web browser engines owned by Americans.
