    Zen will give you the most functionality. Librewolf will give you the most privacy and security.

      Tor Browser will give you most privacy and security, but it can be considered overkill for everyday use. Librewolf takes second place.

        Well. I don’t really think of TOR as a browser but I digress.

          Correctif you ain’t running Tor on the router, you ain’t living proper

      I’m pretty sure that they removed a lot of the telemetry in a very recent update, so I’m not sure how it stacks up now.

    librewolf as daily driver, mullvad for looking shit up on ecommerce sites with new ID each time

    tor if you are feeling paranoid that day.

    ungoogled chrome when none of the above work.

      mullvad for looking shit up on ecommerce sites with new ID each time

      Is it sufficient? I’d always assumed it was easily targetable with the IP so I started using TOR for that purpose

        tor has geo location issues.

        but yeah ideally that tactic should be used vpn, you aint wrong for it to be best, IP is leaking aint good.

        i am not sure how often isp will change ip and i am not sure how easy it is for them to link up fresh ID’s on mullvad though either.

          I see.

          tor has geo location issues.

          Could you explain what you mean with this? I’m not sure I understand

          • sunzu2@thebrainbin.org

            Recommend websites will use your ip to serve your geos products. Tor randomly pops out in mostly EU countries

              Oh I get it now, for me that’s not a problem since I’m also in the EU, but I can see why it’s an issue, I do have a VPN too, but barely use it

    Whatever you end up choosing, make sure it gets regular updates. Not being up-to-date with security updates/patches negates any security/privacy you get.

    I use Librewolf as my daily driver for most things, then Mulvad when I don’t want any fingerprinting.

    Mulvad is highly underated IMO.

      Mullvad Browser isn’t bullet proof, it will not prevent fingerprinting entirely, though it makes it less reliable, especially if it isn’t sophisticated.

      I just started using it myself. I can’t see a difference between it and Firefox, which is a good thing because it means sites aren’t breaking. But it also makes me wonder just how much more private it is.

      I’ve been trained by experience that privacy is strongly correlated to web sites not working properly.

        As far as I know, the only thing Waterfox does (differently from Firefox) is not collecting telemetry and having uBlock Origin installed by default. I haven’t noticed sites breaking either (at least, any more than they did on FF).

      • Ⓜ3️⃣3️⃣ 🌌@lemmy.sdf.org

        +1 for Waterfox, for some reason it works 100% of the time on my usual websites, whereas Librefox has quirks or just fail (because DRM for what I understand)

        Plus it seems Waterfox is a bit more professionaly build and maintained, the team do tell you how they make money from side projects like searches, that is not in the browser core, good enough for me.

    My setup is librewolf as main, ungoogled chromium as backup for problematic sites.

    Mullvad browser is also another great Privacy web browser but probably be more suited if you have a active subscription to mullvad VPN since it’s point is to blend in with other mullvad VPN users.

    I’ve been using Zen and Librewolf, I recommend both of them but Librewolf will give you the privacy out of the box. A friend of mine uses Floorp and he seems happy with it.

    In terms of use, librewolf feels exactly the same as firefox. I chose librewolf but zen is my 2nd pick try them both.

    What would be a good option for the iPhone environment (changing phones not an option)? There are four different Tor browser apps from different developers. Using DuckDuckGo right now, but any other better options?

    • Igilq@szmer.info

      Onion browser from Mike Tigas was recommended as alternative to official one for iPhone by developers. For normal browsers you currently have Firefox, Firefox focus and Orion from kagi. Those options are safest ones from what I know on iPhone
