I use LibreWolf mainly because it handles fingerprinting and tracking blocking well and is open source. I also do not want Tor-related stuff because I don’t want to risk going to illegal websites. So do you know any LibreWolf alternatives for mobile and Android that handle fingerprinting and tracking blocking well, automatically delete cookies and are open source?

    Do you mean this? I don’t want any Tor-related stuff, and this says something about Tor, so that’s something I’d avoid.

    Edit: Someone said that it does in fact not use Tor, so I am safe from landing on those websites, but do you think Mull can handle fingerprinting blocking better than Brave?

      Mull doesn’t access Tor but it has some privacy features inspired by Tor and Librewolf. I would not download a 6 month old version, the latest update was pushed June 20.

      As for Brave vs. Mull, the developer of Mull created this comparison table with some other Android browsers: https://divestos.org/pages/browsers

      A Brave employee maintains this comparison, which seems to admit that Mull is stronger than Brave for fingerprint protection: https://privacytests.org/android.html

        So should I use Mull over Brave? And why is the last version six months old?

        Edit: Do you mean this version?

      Yes, that is the right Mull. As for how it compares to Brave, I could not say.
