“Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. "

            Apk is a package file, grab the one that matches the architecture of your device, probably the arm64 one unless you know otherwise.

            They have an f-droid repo on the main page, would recommend installing that way

        GitHub is so effing confusing, I can’t even. You’d think I’d get the hang of it as often as I need to use it. I feel like UIs for the last like 20 years just get harder and harder for me to follow as everything is condensed into wordless little icons and countless images tile across my screen.

          I was thinking the same thing but then I realised that 20 years ago, most software UI was completely built from even tinier wordless images crammed into obtuse tiny buttons or hidden options in nested drop-down menus but we didn’t really have much trouble with it back then. Maybe we’re all just getting old and our brains don’t want to learn new things anymore. Curse you lack of neuroplasticity!

          image of an advertisement for Gimp (the GNU Image manipulation program) in the 90s with tiny image icon buttons

          image of MOSAIC browser from the 90s with tiny image icon buttons

          image of Netscape Navigator web browser from the 90s with tiny image icon buttons

          image of Firefox web browser 1.0 from 2004 using image icon buttons

          Images not mine but shamelessly stolen from a web search.

            Nested drop-down menus are exactly what I miss though. In most of your screenshots there are text menus and little icons that are duplicates of menu options. I love that design, especially because I recall most programs allowing you to customize the menu bars so that you could hide whichever ones you didn’t like. Little icons only is okay on desktop because you can hover over them to get more info, but on mobile your only option is to tap them.

            Another feature I’ve been reminded of is keyboard shortcuts which can be referenced in the drop-down menus, but are otherwise not taking up any screen space at all. I love that design for people who can use it, but for myself, if the button isn’t on the screen as an option, I forget it exists. This is a huge problem for me as gestures take over things, particularly on Apple products. There’s no scroll bar or right click on the laptop mice; you have to use multiple fingers. And on ipads you have to double-press the one button instead of just having a hamburger button, which is a nightmare for me because I often just hold it in or end up hitting it three times. At least on Android you have the option of gestures and buttons to customize as you like.

            Gimp has never not been confusing as fuck, but I think that’s probably due to me not having any education in image editors in the first place. I’m lucky I can work with layers.

          I copied this from my other reply in case you don’t see it

          You can use Obtanium to pull from Github, Gitlab, and a few others, it has a search function. So you can search ‘Ironfox’ and it will find it on Gitlab, then Obtanium will ask if you want to install it.

          Obtanium is available on F-Droid, or from Github…
