I appreciate your honesty, but hearing this was enough for me to file your project into the "not touching with a ten-foot pole" bucket alongside the likes of Wave Browser.
- knok_off 4y agoI believe that they meant, changing focus. Which is not a bad thing. Once the majority of the privacy stuff is achieved what more is there to do without making it into Tor browser?
- trickypr 4y agoI think you are miss interpreting me. I don't want to focus on privacy above all else. To do that well would compromise on the usability of the browser. For example, if I were to advertise it as "privacy focused", I would not feel comfortable unless I included strict anti-fingerprinting, which would break websites. It is a balancing act, and I won't be collecting or selling your data, but I won't be competing with Librewolf or Tor for the "privacy" market either. However, at the bare minimum, we will be more "private" than Firefox by extent of including uBo and disabling Mozilla's non-critical telemetry by default.
- BiteCode_dev 4y agoDon't be turned off by people wanting everything to be perfect, to their taste, and right now. Those people are very vocal on HN or on the Foss community, but they do not speak for most users anymore than I do. What you are attempting is very interesting and a lot of work. Even if it's not tor browser level of private, I'll be glad to give it a try. We desperatly need more diversity in the browser space.
- solarkraft 4y agoThank you! There are already other Firefox forks that rip out half of its browsing capability.
