Recommended Firefox alternative(s) for Android

Recently there has been controversy around Mozilla Firefox.

I've been looking for an alternative but really struggling, seems like every alternative has a downside:

  • Vivaldi: Uses some proprietary code and likely not doing much better on the user data side of things, also based on Chromium.

  • Tor: Uses Tor protocol and so is quite slow, my ISP would probably also think I'm a drug lord.

  • Fennec: Basically looks the same as Firefox but guessing less up to date, F-Droid has a warning about it's using Mozilla services for tracking.

What are you guys using? Have you found anything good?

Trust Rule
  • If you highlight text in nano using your keyboard I think it uses nanos built-in highlighting and doesn't allow copying to the clipboard. It has it's own built in cut and paste system, and not on the keys you would expect.

    If you highlight the text with your mouse it uses the terminals highlighting and copying to your clipboard works!

    Just lot's of inconsistency is what I'm saying, similar to your Firefox experience!

  • Yeah I know about Ctrl+Shift+C I was joking, I think we've can all relate to accidentally sending a interrupt signal every now and then!

    Now tell me how to copy text from nano and paste it elsewhere! 😆

  • What's been your most painful parent tech support moment?
  • When I was younger having to fill out timesheets in Excel for my mum.

    Always forgetting their passwords to their accounts and having to reset their passwords for them.

    Providing them access on my Netflix account and then when Netflix had the changes where you can't have it in two homes asking me why they can't get on, cancelled my subscription in the end.

    Email attachments and when they go over the max attachment limit complaining about having to upload their files to the cloud.

    Volunteering my help to others...

    The list could go on and on.

    I appreciate my parents but when it comes to helping with technology it sometimes drives me up the wall.

  • petition.parliament.uk Petition: Ban businesses adding service charges to bills without prior customer consent

    I want the Government to ban restaurants and hotels from automatically adding service charges to bills without prior customer consent. I feel many businesses take advantage of diners by imposing these charges without making it clear that they are optional.

    Petition: Ban businesses adding service charges to bills without prior customer consent

    After reading this Reddit thread I had a look to see if there were any petitions to prevent this and found the petition I have linked in this post, doesn't seem to have a lot of signatures.

    Please sign the petition if you agree with it 🙏
