I am tempted to start using the @Vivaldi browser but then I looked* at the diversity in the underlying technology and I think it is better to promote and start using @firefox :firefox: more.

Or should we leave it to #Google :omya_google: and #Apple :apple_inc: only❓

I’m curious 😅 @Vivaldi why not use SpiderMonkey and Gecko❓

      FYI https://privacytests.org/ gives a good browser privacy comparison. No affiliation and don’t know how correct the data is.

      After that project was started, the author started working for Brave.

      The data and tests seem good, but some aspects of the methodology are opinionated. For example, browsers are tested in their out of the box configuration, not in a configuration that a reasonably privacy-conscious user would select with a couple of clicks. Thus, a browser dedicated to blocking tracking (like Brave) gets a lot more checkmarks than a general audience browser like Firefox.

      LibreWolf is essentially Firefox with all those privacy features pre-enabled.
