    Firefox because nothing has blocked ads as well as Ublock Origin has. DNS is for other apps but for browser Firefox has been king.

      Ublock origin – best ad blocker

      Aside from Firefox + Ublock origin, I have Firefox focus. Its ad blocker has let thru disappointingly many ads.

    firefox for most things. Chrome for my banking. The banking app refuses to run on my unrooted phone, because I have apps from f-droid installed, and I have a custom keybooard. And their site only works in chrome. Fuck hsbc

    Mull, which is based on Firefox, but removes all the telemetry and stuff. I forget why I chose it over other versions of Firefox. Someone here on Lemmy recommended it.

      This: Fennec has better security configuration than Firefox about:config settings in regards to telemetry and whatnot.

      Mull is also great! Even more secure and better at stopping phoning home, telemetry, and fingerprinting. Though, Mull tends to break quite a few websites. I use Mull, and switch to Fennec selectively when Mull doesn’t work

    Firefox for trusted sites, Firefox Focus for everything else. Adblock by default and drops all cookies and history when you close the browser.

    Firefox with extensions or mull

    Edit: and why?

    Firefox to use my synced bookmarks and share open tabs from pc.

    Mull for better privacy (i personally like to disable javascript and change my DNS to quad9)

    Firefox with uBlock Origin and NoScript.

    I don’t like ads, or websites using JavaScript for anything I don’t approve of, or unnecessarily.
