I prefer Librewolf as it is easier and simpler to use

LibreJS is a bad project and it is never going to work. Free software is very important to computing and the web but I wish the FSF would stop shoveling broken junk. What’s worse is that if you dare to disagree with the FSF cult they see you as the enemy
“Richard Stallman is a sexist and a transphobe”
“You’re a corporate shill!”
Like I couldn’t have possibly reached that conclusion based on the things that he says or the way the be acts…

Arkenfox is not a fork FYI
How is it not a fork?
It is a script that automatically changes the internal flags of Firefox (accessed manually through “about:config”) but isn’t a recompile. A fork that uses most of the Arkenfox config is Librewolf.
That sounds like the definition of a fork
Arkenfox quite literally is not a fork. It is just changing settings. That is like saying I am making a Firefox fork by changing it to dark theme and changing the default search engine to Bing.
Arkenfox isn’t a fork, even with a script it is manual for much of it. A fork requires redistributing the code, which for Firefox requires the Dev to change the name and replace icons of the application (to comply with Firefox’s license), which requires modifying the source code and compiling.
Taking the latest release and then running a script to patch it with some modifications is the definition of a fork.
By your logic, Tor Browser isn’t a fork of Firefox.
No, you’re mistaken. A fork is a whole new product. This is not a whole new product. It’s a patch.
Every fork creates fragmentation. Then you get forks of forks. Then you get forks of forks of forks. Eventually, you get a knife, and a spoon, and a spork, maybe even a fpoon. And every fork splits your developer pool in half! And once you’re down to one developer each, the developer splits in half! And then you have no project.
And that’s why we should use Chrome?
No, but cargo-culting Mozilla isn’t ideal.
Forks create options. Only a handful of forks will actually be used.
Only a handful of forks will actually be used.
Tell that to Linux lol
or userspace audio daemons
or package managers
or FHS
or Linux userspace network stacks
or Linux firewalls
or init systems & rc managers
or window managers / desktop environments
or graphics toolkits
That’s the idea. It is good to have options. Single standards are a bad idea even though they are convenient in the short term.
Hard disagree. Though I suppose this is the usual big disagreement between linux and bsd users.
Librewolf my beloved. Unfortunately not on mobile iirc
Use Mull
What about iOS ?
no great options but Orion by kagi is much better than base safari since you can at least get extensions like ublock
Safari is your only option as all iOS browsers are Safari. Also there are not as many apps as Apples ecosystem is locked and requires a lot of money to develop for. Add that to the fact that it is closed source and you have a anti freedom device. Apple also is bad about data collection despite there claims.
their* claims.
Firefox Focus anybody?
It has proprietary blobs and telemetry
Proprietary boobs are my favourite
Bobs. They said bobs
I read between the limes on this one
