@itsfoss Lynx in the terminal and Librewolf/IronFox if I need graphics or the site I am required to visit needs to run java or something. Everything on this list is either spyware, contains AI, or is not fully FOSS.

@itsfoss Zen browser is my pick.

@itsfoss Who cares about somebody's browser preference? Do something useful with your life.

@itsfoss I'm using Brave, and I'm Happy with It

[kjetilg@mastodon.social]

@itsfoss Haven't found the perfect browser yet.

Tried Vivaldi but after a while a bug showed up preventing me from connecting to my work vdi. Lost trust in it.

Tried Firefox but Outlook Web which I unfortunately use at work doesn't work most of the time. Also it has got a few other annoyances.

Have considered Librewolf but it doesn't have an android version - I sync bookmarks.

Ended up with Brave, which as a bonus automatically removes annoying cookie popups.

@itsfoss well I got work to do, so clearly Vivaldi. People with enough time to spare can use some gaming browsers or browsers that look 'clean' because they can hardly do anything more than just showing web pages.

[ronald48@mastodon.world]

@itsfoss LibreWolf as my main browser and Helium as an unGoogled Chromium browser on the Linus desktop. And Waterfox on the /e/os phone.

@itsfoss #duckduckgo on iOS which is amazing. #bravebrowser on Linux mint because duckduckgo isn’t available on Linux unfortunately

@itsfoss DDG
Ecosia

No way on Vivaldi since they have Amazon built into its homepage.

@itsfoss firefox (hardened, fucked ai)

@itsfoss There's only one ( 1 ) cross-platform #FOSS browser that comes with sane privacy defaults including non-Big Tech search engine and adblocker.

I'd love to be proven wrong.

#BraveBrowser #Brave #privacybydefault

[opensourceopenmind@social.vivaldi.net]

@Kdude @rustbuckett @AAKL @itsfoss Actually good defaults are important because non Techy users are just going to stay on Chrome instead of tweaking configs, installing extensions, changing seach engines, etc.

[opensourceopenmind@social.vivaldi.net]

@danish_akhtar7 @rustbuckett @itsfoss Brave ads are disabled by default. Ad blocker and non Big Tech search engine by default. There's no other cross-platform Open Source browser that does this.

[opensourceopenmind@social.vivaldi.net]

@alhashimi @itsfoss Not cross platform unfortunately

[opensourceopenmind@social.vivaldi.net]

@terminaltilt @yoasif @itsfoss Just see the amount of trackers they embed

[terminaltilt@climatejustice.social]

@opensourceopenmind @yoasif @itsfoss

Oh, you're right! Privacy Badger lit up with a ton of stuff it is blocking.

[dgoosens@phpc.social]

@itsfoss

@zenbrowser
it's what Firefox should have become

fast, smart, elegant, privacy, no AI
juste perfect

[anon_ally@tech.lgbt]

@itsfoss Firefox my beloved ^^.

[alhashimi@mastodon.social]

@opensourceopenmind @itsfoss indeed unfortunately
