It also said operating systems, not kernels.
Some websites don’t work properly on Firefox. That or testing websites you’re developing on Chromium
I’ve been using Helium as my Chromium browser of choice (used to use Brave) for a while now. Of course, I still use Mullvad Browser (FF based) as my daily driver, but Helium has been great for anything I need Chromium for. I know Firefox good Chromium bad, but if you ever need Chromium, this seems like the least of all evils.
Graphene is the best by a long shot, security wise and degoogling wise. In fact, you can use GrapheneOS with absolutely zero Google services running on your phone. /e/OS uses MicroG which while better than your usual Android phone, still runs with privileged access to your device. This is in contrast to GrapheneOS’ optional sandboxed Google services implementation which gives Google the same privileges any other app on your phone would have.
I used to use FUTO keyboard but I know they had some weird controversies about licensing and such so I figured the safer move would be HeliBoard. FUTO was nice too though
Big fan of HeliBoard
6·8 months agoNot a file browser and not very good for privacy either.
There’s nothing wrong with making a .desktop
IronFox is a privacy fork for Android, the rest of these are meant for desktop.
Waterfox is privacy-focused but more focused on convenience than Librewolf*.
Librewolf is also privacy-focused but leans further into privacy than Waterfox with the sacrifice of convenience.
Mullvad Browser leans even further into privacy than Librewolf with the sacrifice of convenience. Made by the Tor team and Mullvad.
*I haven’t used Waterfox much but this seems to be the consensus online
Personally, I use Mullvad Browser as a daily driver, and anything that doesn’t work on Mullvad Browser I use Librewolf or hardened Brave for. (Many people don’t like Brave but I like to have a privacy-focused Chromium-based browser for web development)
- If you want maximum privacy, Grayjay and Freetube don’t link to accounts so Google doesn’t know what you’re doing (especially if you’re on a VPN) but again, it’s understandable if you don’t feel that’s worth it.
- Ah got it, didn’t realize you were using passkeys.
- If you’re willing to do a bit of setup, Stremio + RealDebrid ($40 a year) + Torrentio/AIOStreams is pretty much perfect to me (although if you watch a lot of super obscure shows maybe not the way to go as RealDebrid doesn’t cache everything)
I’ve never used AdGuard but you can customize uBlock Origin to fit your needs and block specific things for specific websites. uBlock Origin is commonly used as a default in hardened browsers which would help you fit in with the crowd even more (although I realize you said you weren’t going for anti-fingerprinting, just something to consider)
- I switched to using Grayjay Desktop rather than my browser for YouTube
- If you need a userscript manager, Violentmonkey is an open source alternative
- Proton Pass has an app, yes less convenient without the autofill but better for privacy not to have the extension
- Personally, I would just sail the seven seas
If you’re really crazy about your privacy I’d recommend getting rid of any extensions you don’t 100% need (keep ublock origin though) as not only can they stalk you themselves but it can also help websites fingerprint you. Keeping your extensions to a minimum will help you blend in with the crowd, especially if you use a hardened browser like LibreWolf and/or Mullvad Browser
Ah, I use Voyager and it lets you easily read the alt text after clicking on the image, I figured there was similar functionality on other clients. Noted
It’s in the alt text
Good catch I was in a rush
