Me, I have a low threat model so I mainly try to stay away from proprietary stuff when possible (Chrome, Edge ect) I use an eclectic mix of browsers.

I use Vivaldi (I know it’s not entirely FOSS but I like the customizability of it), for my amnesiac browsers I use Firefox Focus on Android, and LibreWolf on PC, and for when I want as much anonymity as possible I use Tor with Orbot active routing traffic to Switzerland.

I used to use Brave Browser a lot because I like the user interface but I kinda got turned off by all the crypto stuff they’ve been peddling. And as far as I know, Bromite hasn’t been updated in quite some time (please elighten me if I’m wrong about that I’ve been out of the loop for a while) , and I was weirded out by the developer’s statement “I’ll get around to it sometime.”

Mull is great but very slow to search imo, when I search for something it takes a long time to load. Or it takes a long time to load a website. It could be internet speed but other browsers work just fine,and I’ve tested Mull on other WiFis.

I sometimes also use DuckDuckGo but the search results are so bad that I just find myself searching google to find what I want. No offensive if anyone uses those I personally just haven’t found much use out if them.

So what browsers do you use for privacy and security?

Edit: Sorry for the long post and edited for clarity.

    Currently using firefox but I’ll probably be switching to Safari on Mac once proton pass is out. Depending on where proton pass is available on android or if it allows autofill in all apps, I might switch from fennec too.

      Very excited for proton pass myself as well! I currently use Firefox everywhere so I’ll probably just keep using that with the app.

        Yeah Firefox doesn’t support PWAs so I kinda need to use Safari. It’s getting support for PWAs in the next major macOS version. Fennec supports PWAs so Im not sure if I’m gonna change the browser. Just depends on proton pass being available there
