Which obscure browser do you daily drive?
-
The Firefox ToC discussion pushed me down the browser engine rabbit hole (again). Have you had a chance to daily drive some really good but obscure web engine that is not Gecko (Firefox), WebKit (Apple) and Blink (Chromium)? How viable is it for a complete switch - this includes banking, chatting, logging into websites, etc.
seamonkey but it's pretty hard to use without much love nowadays with so many incompatible websites. It's a perfect mail client tho.
Just get Firefox ESR with arkenfox, that should be enough.

Reminds me to check out lynx again.

I'm going to stick with some form of Firefox fork, personally. Chromium forks are questionable, as if I recall right they include a binary blob provided by google, which could be hiding god knows what.
Firefox is fully open source, so any code supporting this potential data harvesting can't hide, and will be removed by most forks.

I'm trying out waterfox for mobile and librewolf for desktop. No complaints so far
Just don't try to schedule a video for publication in LibreWolf; its time zone obfuscation will totally have it publish at an unexpected time unless you figure that out first! I've been on Waterfox for both mobile and desktop and have enjoyed them equally.

with the recent news of a ToS from FF which forks would you recommend as a daily driver to replace FF?

Librewolf has been solid for me. I've seen others plug waterfox as well

I’ve been using Orion on iOS for a while. It’s not bad.

Please don't bank with a bleeding edge web engine that isn't forked from one that's been around for decades. It's really not secure to use things that people haven't had time to attack yet.

I used librewolf until there was some concern about them updating in a timely manner.
Now I used Firefox with Phoenix to maybe get the best of both worlds and IronFox on mobile.

Cromite. it is a very good and private, easy to use browser, but can be heavy on resources https://github.com/uazo/cromite

Brave is a series scam company.

Yeah; unfortunately on that particular computer, it’s the only modern browser that still functions. I don’t trust it with anything.
If the question had been “what trustworthy browsers do you use?” I wouldn’t have mentioned it.

I'm really hoping the new ladybird browser is delivered sooner than expected
