I’ve been using Brave for the past three or so years but I do know that Linux/privacy enthusiasts tend to swear by Firefox. Wanted to get people’s thoughts on this topic to see if I should be making a potential switch. Thanks!

      For security - yes, chromium-based. But for privacy Mull (Fennec) with extension support would be superior!

        Up to you if you think that feature is worth the security/privacy loss. Personally I’ve not missed syncing tabs across devices, I do most things on the one device anyway.

          I don’t think there would be any privacy loss, Firefox sync is encrypted and all that. I work on multiple devices so I absolutely need it.

            I meant the security/privacy loss of using Chromium on desktop or Firefox on Android

      Maybe the explanation is somewhere on the site you linked, but I didn’t see it. Why is Firefox on Android less secure?
