Giving @librewolf a try. I like the idea of a browser specifically hardened against browser fingerprinting and tracking. Runs all of my existing Firefox plugins with no problems

      One time I heard on a podcast that sometimes you are more private because you blend with the rest of the world. By using a very unique browser , with a very unique set of extensions , etc. You make yourself less private.

        @baritone_edge Some of the “hardening” that @ZacBelado is talking about is making sure not to report any information about plugins, installed fonts, or other things, it produces a false report when this information is requested. Also @Apollo2323 LibreWolf forges its signature, making itself appear to be like that of Chrome running on Windows. Occasionally while I use it, I see websites conform themselves to this signature, e.g. offering me Windows versions of apps to download.

        I have also heard LibreWolf praised by differently-abled people for its good accessibility features as well.

    I used it for a while but i hated having to login to my sites every time I reopened the browser. Also 1Password didn’t work with it.

    Maybe someday I’ll give it another shot but for now Firefox is ok with me
