Ok. Chrome sucks. Brave sucks. What’s good. Firefox?

[–] hperrin@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Firefox is the least sucky.

[–] Orbituary@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Firefox and Mull (a Firefox fork) have your privacy in mind. They work as good as Chrome and don't fuck you without asking.

I'm team Firefox, very happy here. There's a small amount of optional telemetry to disable to maximise your privacy, and it has the best plugins because there's a lot of choice and they're not purposely crippled.

Plus you can use pretty much any plugin on mobile. this is the biggest feature for me.

Firefox with good plugins is even better!

Unless browser fingerprinting is your concern, in which case the most generic, unmodified browser is best (e.g. Tor).

But that is a huge topic for another thread.

Overall you‘re right but in which world is tor generic and unmodified 😂

[–] WallEx@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

It's not possible to identify you if you use the tor browser without changing the window size or any other settings, because the fingerprint is literally the same amongst everyone that uses it this way. So you kind of blend in with the masses, it's neither generic nor unmodified, I give you that :D
