hey man, what's up, I've got some updates. I installed Fennec and used it for a bit, it actually seems pretty good, I'm really considering using it as my default, even though I'll miss Brave's speed, the nice UI, and the widget showing how many ads were blocked, but Fennec is lighter (storage-wise) and has everything I need, like, it's not "Oh my God, the best browser in the universe," but it does what it's supposed to, I'm happy with it.
With uBlock Origin you can see how many ads are blocked, just not as widget on your homescreen or something. Did you install that?
How much slower do you think firefox/fennec is than Brave? Maybe you can tell the devs specifics if the site is slow on desktop Firefox aswell.
