Which browser are you switching to? I think many people on here, like me, think the options are Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Chrome derivatives. There was a recent hullabaloo about Chromium packagers throwing in the towel with Google deprecating a bunch of Google features from Chromium, suggesting that using a Chrome derivative may not be the strongest choice, but I'm still curious as to where you're heading.
- a0-prw 6y agoI'm trying out FOSS browser from Fdroid. Its based on webview, but very minimalist. I don't use any Google services, so I don't mind about Chromium browsers being cut off from those. I just want a lightweight browser with a good privacy policy, adblocking and no obnoxious corporate intrusions :) FOSS browser is on Github.
- jamienicol 6y agoPresumably you're fine with tracking adverts all over the web then? God forbid Mozilla try to make some money (to pay their developers, not for profit) whilst preserving your privacy.
- a0-prw 6y agoFOSS blocks ads and third-party cookies by default, all cookies can be blocked. If you really want to go minimalist, try links running in Termux on your phone. I have nothing against Mozilla making money to pay their developers (or for profit). However, as the user of their products I obviously have the right to decide when the experience of using their products has become so annoying that I choose something else.
