🚨🚨 BREAKING: Google Chrome to kill uBlock Origin for good 🚨🚨

@Tutanota
Went back to Firefox about 6 months ago and it's been fine.  I don't love the AI being in it but it's completely opt out now and the free VPN is pretty handy.

@Tutanota
Firefox. The only time I use Chrome now is for Remote Desktop and as soon as I find a good free replacement, that will be over as well.

@Tutanota Kagi Orion Browser. @kagihq

[darkathena@beige.party]

@Tutanota @Guillotine_Jones Waterfox

@Tutanota In the blog, the best browser listed is

> LibreWolf fork for best privacy

as the best browser. This is incredibly cynical, since your email doesn’t work in it — something I’ve been reporting for a long time. Nothing has changed for the better since then.

Attached: 1 image #tutanota #librewolf Tuta is no longer friends with LibreWolf. To use it, you need browsers with tracking functionality. It's unfortunate. It used to be a good service.

Mastodon (mastodon.social)

@Tutanota I have used Firefox for many years but recently persistent 'updates' which involves a massive irritating popup about changes to the UI that you have to close which interrupts your workflow is irksome and I am now looking at alternatives. Recently ditched Facebook for Mastodon, Twitter / X for Bluesky, looking forward to ditching Google as well and am looking forward to Graphene being rolled out for other devices.

@Tutanota Vivaldi. You can add custom block lists in Android, probably for other platforms i assume.

@Tutanota Firefox, it works well in snap

[khleedril@cyberplace.social]

@Woodcat @Tutanota What do you mean 'YOUR email doesn't work in it?' Mine certainly does.

[khleedril@cyberplace.social]

@XNHQ @Tutanota Why both?

[khleedril@cyberplace.social]

@hurt138 @Tutanota ... and another one.

[xnhq@mastodon.social]

@khleedril @Tutanota I need at least two browsers for my needs specifically. I need two of pretty much everything including two emails. That is just me specifically/

@Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net @elduvelle@neuromatch.social @Tutanota@mastodon.social @alexadeswift@lgbtqia.space @t3rcermillenium@mastodon.social Does that impact the built-in ad blocking in Vivaldi, or 'just' the extensions?

I haven't compared the efficacy of the approaches since I do some blocking at the DNS level on my network, so I'm not a good test case. But...

[javensbukan@cosocial.ca]

@Tutanota Done and done.

Now using Waterfox on ally devices. ️

[woodcat@mastodon.social]

@khleedril There’s a link there with more details.

[sheislaurence@mastodon.social]

@placebo @t3rcermillenium @elduvelle @Vivaldi @alexadeswift @Tutanota same setup as you Aleksei, though I find that Vivaldi's default blocker breaks more sites than other adblockers I tried, to the point I am unsure if I wanna keep it. I might keep it for my phone and switch for my laptop.

[astrohyde@mastodon.social]

@Tutanota floorp browser all the way!

[catha@masto.es]

@Tutanota duckduck. Very long time already and I don't see why I should change.
Also working on getting my phone cleaned from any Google app or what so ever, and laptops are being cleaned and installed with Linux.
Well, and WINE since I need a programm that needs windows to run... Unfortunately not found a replacement for it. Yet...

@Latgal I tried brave but they are still Google linked. Deleted it again within the hour
