I have modified Firefox. Might as well be Librewolf.

I was the same which was why I just switched to librewolf. Cut the work out for me.

Until Mozilla opts you into something

What is it when one fires up 30 selenium instances using the Firefox webdriver, all loading random sites and clicking links, then route all personal traffic through tor?

possiblylinux127 ,

Normal?

pewgar_seemsimandroid ,

uhhhhhh betterfox

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I use Librewolf and TBB. Both have NoScript enabled and JS turned off by default. I never turn on JS on TBB obviously, and for the few sites that I frequent on Librewolf, I tweaked it by hand. It’s not that hard.

I will look to also use Mullvad browser alongside Librewolf maybe, not sure which one of them is more private since Mullvad browser comes straight from the TOR project and has their security settings.

possiblylinux127 ,

Librewolf also has Tor security settings

shekau ,

I’m using Mullvad browser for over a year on Linux and I can recommend. It’s basically TBB without TOR

Librewolf is better than Tor in some ways. Tor has ads

Churbleyimyam ,

I rarely have a reason to use Tor and the ads always shock me when I do. I find it weird that most people are experiencing the internet with oldschool ads in their normal day-to-day browsing.

prunerye ,

Honestly, there are probably enough people using ublock with tor browser that you can still retain most of the benefits if you do the same. You’ll just be in a smaller cohort than if you didn’t.

Tor browser has ads? I’ve never seen them lol

Gotta weigh in the benefits of privacy/features vs anonymity for your needs.

That’s why I said “some ways”

I am using Edge on both Android and Desktop

shy_mia ,

Then you’re practically naked

And bald

shalva97 ,

well, at least not yet

ILikeBoobies ,

at least they are using a chromium derivative over chrome

shy_mia ,

I’m not sure Microsoft flavored Chromium > Chrome

ILikeBoobies ,

Well now you know at least

It runs with less overhead/it’s faster

shy_mia ,

No I knew already
I was talking in terms of privacy

ILikeBoobies ,

I can’t say if telemetry is different between packages but at least on Windows there’s no reason to collect as much as Google because they collect it at the OS level

That gives potential for them collecting less on other platforms

shy_mia ,

It’s the exact opposite imo. I’d imagine that doesn’t really make a difference considering Edge is cross platform, and their goal is to collect as much data as possible.
Plus, they just collect different kinds of info through Windows. So Windows + Edge is even worse, especially since it integrates just as deeply into Windows as IE did years back.

It’s a waste of resources

All network requests already go through so many layers in Windows

It’s a waste of resources

That’s basically the whole OS at this point, no?

shy_mia ,

Bold of you to assume that Microsoft cares about resources. Have you seen how much RAM Windows 11 uses at idle? (not including cached data)

The whole OS is a waste of resources.

ILikeBoobies ,

Their resources not yours

hirage ,

Well, I use them all. It depends on the services I access and the threats that affect them (and therefore me). Firefox for studying and sites that use WebGL; Librewolf for everyday browsing. Oh yeah, and there’s Tor.

recapitated ,

Where is IceWeasel on this scale?

recapitated ,

Probably before Firefox, since you’d be broadcasting your user agent as the specific person who is using it

Fuck firefox. Are you sheep just going to ignore all the shit they put you through, and didn’t even explain themselves?

Firefox is a shitshow, I don’t care “how good they are now”. If you don’t remember how bad they treated you circa 2012, then fuck off groupie wanker.

Firefox is where they are for a good reason, they cannot be trusted. Only wankers keep promoting them.

You hold a grudge for 12 years? Did they kick your dog or something?

I chuckled at this because I pictured John Mozilla in a black suit about to kick his dog.

Oh my… I get this reference…

JackbyDev ,

If you don’t see how bad Chromium browsers are treating you circa right now then I don’t know what to say.

possiblylinux127 ,

So you want us to use what, Chrome or some Chrome clone? There isn’t a lot of options. That’s why Librewolf exists

deathmetal27 ,

What anime is that?

bountygiver ,

myanimelist.net/…/Watashi_ni_Tenshi_ga_Maiorita

sparkle , (edited )

The character is Miyako Hoshino, the protagonist of Wataten! An Angel Flew Down to Me (Watashi ni Tenshi ga Maiorita!), a yuri romcom about a college student falling in love with an elementary schooler, written by a guy

Yes, lesbian pedophile is a subgenre now, and it’s mediocre as fuck at best

deathmetal27 ,

Oh well. Now I wish I didn’t ask.
