For Android users seeking a privacy-focused browser, Privacy Guides recommends Mull:

Mull is a privacy oriented and deblobbed Android browser based on Firefox. Compared to Firefox, it offers much greater fingerprinting protection out of the box, and disables JavaScript Just-in-Time (JIT) compilation for enhanced security. It also removes all proprietary elements from Firefox, such as replacing Google Play Services references.

Mull enables many features upstreamed by the Tor uplift project using preferences from Arkenfox. Proprietary blobs are removed from Mozilla’s code using the scripts developed for Fennec F-Droid.

    Why did you add an ad for Mull when your title and article is about Firefox?

      Posting an article about something and then using it plug something else alongside it is the kind of deliberate spam mods should be removing, no matter what software they’re plugging.

    Mull has a lot of weird issues, like being the only mobile browser I tested my website on that used the front camera rather than the back camera.

    Until Firefox mobile has a functional home button in the toolbar then I don’t care what the fuck the do because I won’t be using it. Dumb as fuck not to have it.

      I disagree, as a Firefox mobile daily driver I will confirm it has extensions. Dark mode reader and ublock origin, does one need anything else?

        I swapped from uBlock to AdNauseum. It’s a fork of uBlock which also “clicks” some specific ads in order to cost companies money for running them lol

        Yeah I’m using kiwi browser as my daily driver browser because of extension feature, compared to other chromium based browser.

        For firefox, It also has extension feature but the reason why I don’t use it because of the auto reload bug and some sites are somehow broken when viewed with firefox mobile.

        *But for firefox desktop, I think it’s good for me

      Are you a bot or just this uninformed?

      Firefox has extensions and isn’t chromium. Only a fool thinks a Chromium browser will stay friendly to extensions after Manifest 3.
