I love how people treat Mozilla and Firefox as the sole savior of browser space from Google despite being in bed with Google, while for Firefox to not be spyware (dials home on startup, DoH to cloudflare, glean, opt-out telemetry you can’t easily disable, etc) and adware (pocket, “top sites”, extension ads) laden garbage, people use forks like Librewolf, ignoring browser projects that actually respect your privacy like qtweb{kit,engine} browsers (falkon, qutebrowser), gtkwebkit browsers (badwolf, luakit), and SerenityOS’s ladybird browser.
Hey, i hate Google as much as the next guy, but cut Firefox some slack man. It’s the best compromise we could hope for, at least compared to the browsers you suggested with their abysmal UI & UX. The goal is for privacy to become mainstream, and no one without a bondage kink would ever touch theses with a 10 foot pole.
Okay, putting Google as default browser gives it undeserved trust from your everyday user who won’t bother to change it : that’s a big problem, but if you want it to change, consider donating ! This will help Mozilla free itself from the mega corps.
Honestly, love Librewolf but I was totally unaware of the other engines this mentioned. Are they as full featured? Do they have mobile versions to sync with?
