    Have heard that DivestOS also made significant contributions to Fennec, so not sure what the future looks like there.

    Also, IronFox is a fork of Mull but I need to see long term commitment before I’m willing to change my primary browser.

    I’m using Tor browser right now but I’d like not to use Tor long term.

      Cromite is unfortunately chrome based, but degoogled and hardened. I keep it updated straight from the github with obtainium. Ive been using both to bypass compatibility issues, but honestly I have more issues with cromite than Mull.

        Yeah I’m aware of those but I just dont want to support the Chrome hegemony. Plus Manifest v3, ew.

        I found that Tor browser doesnt have and can’t install uBo and has terrible ad blocking and weak finger print protection.

        I switched to Firefox and went through all the settings to make it more privacy respecting. EFF Cover Your Tracks says my fingerprint protection is strong and I’m blocking all ads, so for now this is what I’m going with until I’m convinced of the long term viability of IronFox.
