On Android I browse by default with Firefox Focus and only to use sessions like posting this response I copy the URL to chrome and make the post. Than I'll go back to Focus. It's crude but Firefox Focus beats all browsers privacy and responsiveness on Android imo.
- cpeterso 8y agoOnce I started using Firefox Focus, I was surprised at just how much of my browsing didn't need to be logged in. I don't need to keep session state when I'm just reading Wikipedia, news sites, or blogs.
- amorroxic 8y agoSame, Focus is great. Also a very warm mention for what I think became one of my favourite features while browsing - one single tab.
- chrsstrm 8y agoSame. My one wish for Focus is that I could open another tab. Even just one more tab during an active session would make life easier.
- nitemice 8y agoYou can open more than one tab with Focus. I did it accedentally a few times. The bin action button changes to a number if you have more than one tab open. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/open-new-tab-firefox-focus-android https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/open-new-tab-firefox-fo...
- dddw 8y agoyou can, hold the link and click open in a new tab
- chrsstrm 8y agoTIL that yes, that's true, but only on Android. iOS only lets you Open, which uses the same window.
- excalibur 8y ago+1 for Focus, but I don't generally interact with HN through a browser on mobile. There's an app for that.
- ttty 8y agoI think apps can track your hardware I'd. I'm not saying hn does that, but other apps might track you even better with an app.
