Messing for the last several months also with mobile browsers on my Android devices. Especially because mobile scare-/malware was bothering me too much in recent times ( harmless example you could open on Android: https://shkspr.mobi/vibratescam/ https://shkspr.mobi/vibratescam/ ). Compared them all (Chrome, Chrome beta, Firefox, Firefox beta, Opera, Brave) and realized that Firefox+uBlock, especially since Firefox 45, is reasonable fast and good to use as daily driver on Android. It blocks all the malware and web videos work even better in Firefox than in mobile Chrome.
- takno 11y agoI'd love to know what I'm doing wrong. FF45 on a fast Android phone for me is almost unbearably laggy both on loading and scrolling pages. I mean to the point where I can't really understand how anybody is using it. I've tried this with and without a couple of ad blockers and ghostery
- therealmarv 11y agoI'm running Firefox beta (now 46) mostly... they are constantly improving it and it's more bleeding edge but still stable enough, maybe give it a try.
- evook 11y agoµblock on android is the number one reason for firefox on android. For me A reason good enough to live with lags and stuttering.
- Macha 11y agoBeen using Firefox on Android since they switched over from their initial UI to the natively built one. Used it on a HTC Desire HD, One M7, Nexus 7 and Nexus 5X. Only site I really have issues on are the Wikia family of sites. Just checked, they're better but still not a pleasant experience on Chrome either.
