Mozilla has just deleted the following:

“Does Firefox sell your personal data?”

“Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. "

      The LibreWolf Debian repository was down all of last week. I peeked over at their forum and it looks like the team is really struggling to maintain the project since a key member left. Its struggles to keep up with security updates is why its no longer being recommended by Privacy Guides. I’m trying out Mullvad browser right now to see how it fairs

        Hey can you link me to a source where it shows that privacy guides doesn’t recommend it due to security updates slowing down? I cannot find it.

        I was going to use mullvad browser instead, however it wants you to use DoH. If you turn it off, you’re now fingerprintable. This is rough since i use network filter tools and it’ll bypass it if i use doh. So i was gonna try librewolf.

            Thanks. I looked through this and a few threads. It seems like they did lose a key member. But it also seems like they’ve kept up with Firefox security updates, which is the most important part. It’s still concerning though but it seems perfectly fine to use. What do you think?

            As for mullvad browser, like i said, I’d use that but unfortunately I can’t use DoH which is rhe default in that browser. It will bypass my network filtering.

        Oh no, that’s sad to hear. Society really needs to start doing more clever decisions. A project like Librewolf could be so incredibly useful for most of people. Somehow should find a way to foster those efforts.

      Does LibreWolf not have a mobile client? The ability to sync with my desktop will unfortunately keep me on Firefox, unless I’m just missing it.

            GitHub is so effing confusing, I can’t even. You’d think I’d get the hang of it as often as I need to use it. I feel like UIs for the last like 20 years just get harder and harder for me to follow as everything is condensed into wordless little icons and countless images tile across my screen.

              I copied this from my other reply in case you don’t see it

              You can use Obtanium to pull from Github, Gitlab, and a few others, it has a search function. So you can search ‘Ironfox’ and it will find it on Gitlab, then Obtanium will ask if you want to install it.

              Obtanium is available on F-Droid, or from Github…

                Apk is a package file, grab the one that matches the architecture of your device, probably the arm64 one unless you know otherwise.

                They have an f-droid repo on the main page, would recommend installing that way

                When you go to “Add app” you can either add the direct URL (if you know it) or the next option down is “search”. When you tap search it takes you to another page that says “select source” and has check boxes for Github, Gitlab, etc. Make sure they are ticked then tap “select 4”.

                When it follow those steps I see results from multiple sources.
