I saw it on f-droid news and I’m surprised I haven’t heard anything about it. Probably because it’s new.
Most other browsers are Firefox forks, but if I understand this one only uses the engine. As such most other ones feel like just slightly different Firefox versions. But this one is very different, and I’m liking a lot! Many things on the UI are easier to use and many options I don’t see in Firefox. I specially like the options it give before you first use (search engine, ublock, block or not AI).
It’s also a lot faster, because I blocked many samsung services on my phone like face recognition and Firefox becomes super slow without it (Fennec keeps crashing).
The only thing I don’t like so far is that I don’t see how to hide the URL bar for fullscreen, and typing a URL is very weird in the middle of a bunch of options (very welcome options, but URL typing should be prioritized).
I highly recommend giving it a go. Specially the chromium browser people. I never experienced the complaints I see from them before blocking services on my phone, but those who had issues with Firefox clones might find that it’s better.
One question I have is how trustworthy is the developer. But he seems to not be based in the US, which is a big plus to begin with.
Are there other communities I should post this on? I think this project would benefit from more exposure.
I don’t see any donation option. And it’s annoying that the only communication is through microsoft’s github…
Wow, comes with container tabs out of the box. That’s one of the most requested features for Firefox mobile.
I noticed that too and was surprised. Though I haven’t tried it yet.
