Today is Install A New Browser Day with Tech Reclaimers! Join us to #reclaimtech #optout
If you are still on Chrome, take baby steps by installing Firefox and moving your bookmarks and passwords over. You will be amazed how quick and easy it is to reclaim control and experience some freedom of choice! Then follow these steps to secure your new browser https://www.optoutproject.net/day-seven/#mcetoc_1ih1ustidcrr and https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/
If you are on Firefox or already far beyond Firefox-- great! Why not try out a new browser? I have about 14 of them lying around, earmarked for various activities. I use different ones to keep my online activities separate, or to choose the right one for the job (more privacy locked down? more eco-friendly? more optimized for tabs? only works on Chrome or Safari or Edge?). If you've already got Opera or Vivaldi or DuckDuckGo, may I recommend lesser-known ones like Avast, Colibri, Ecosia, Floop or Orion?
On this machine I have:
Firefox
DuckDuckGo
Safari
Tor
Opera
Orion
LibreWolf
Floorp
Colibri
Brave
Ungoogled Chromium
Avast
Edge (booo, but just in case)Er, that may be overkill, but I do like giving options a try. It looks like I'm missing Ecosia (I have Vivaldi on another machine ofc) so that's on my list for today!

@cyberlyra Would love to hear your thoughts on if and how Konform Browser works for your use-case. I think it may be highly relevant for you. In case you're up for a 15th browser on this fine day!

@cyberlyra Checked out 'Multi-Account Containers' extension for Firefox. Technically off topic so obviously no gold star... but maybe a lower value sticker? Joke aside, it is good stuff. But haven't really figured out my strategy. Initially I just wanted to contain what little remains of google... but now I'm thinking that maybe I should have interest related containers instead say, a "Travel container" with the e-mail I use for that and airlines etc. Guess I can use both strategies.
