I should mention that DuckDuckGo recently released an android browser and it is privacy focused. I cant tell you how well it does its job BUT the important thing is that it has an experimental feature that creates a virtual network interface that routes coms and blocks phone home attempts and tells you what app is doing what.
I have had it running for a few months and its crazy to see how much traffic is going on without your knowledge.
exactly, we cant be going by vibes here. lets talk about specific metrics and then say ok, well these metrics are important, and this one has the ones I want.
I would stay away from chromium forks in general. Google is doing some underhanded stuff using web manifest v3, not to mention all the bastard stuff they are doing in general.
I am very curious not only to hear the answer to your question regarding FF forks, but also why they get rated that way.
Ive only started looking into these. GrapheneOS looks cool, but being stuck with only the Pixel is kinda annoying and google is being shitty about supporting it. Removing drivers and squashing git commits, making it harder to support.
I need to look at the others to see how they fair.
