Original question by @Turd_Ferg@sh.itjust.works

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?

    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.

    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?

    IceRaven on mobile mostly. Was diehard for Kiwi, but it’s stopped development and is being absorbed into Edge. Tried all the current stuff, and IceRaven was the most like what I was used to.

    I use Firefox, but tbh I don’t know why. Chrome is usually always faster when I have tested…

    I think it’s def nice to give attention to the only other big browser that doesn’t use chromium under the hood

    I use Librewolf on my PC and I use Brave on my phone (it’s the only way I can use a uBlock on IOS)

      Orion on iOS supports uBO too. It’s from the Kagi search engine people. I’ve been using it for a while now, and I like it a lot.

        I knew that Orion supported Firefox and Chrome add-ons, but for some reason I assumed that they won’t work unless it was something I could find on the iOS App store. 😅 I’m def going to add uBO to Orion, Brave’s CEO is such a pos and I’ve always felt icky using it but there wasn’t a good mobile alternative.

          I won’t use Brave for the same reasons, but not having uBO was the worst part of switching to iOS until Orion released.
