How has your experience with Content-O-Matic been? I noticed mixed reviews.
Have you tested any alternatives for handling gdpr pop-ups?
uBlock has an "EasyList/uBO - Cookie Notices" filter that you can enable on both desktop and mobile, which is probably enough for most people.
Sometimes it works but simetimes it still has issues.
Firefox, especialy because of extensions like ublock, and sponsor block. But also because of features like total cookie protection. Where cross site 3rdparty cookies are sandboxed for each site.
And Read Outlout! So handy for all these news stories on Lemmy.

Firefox because Ublock Origin is the best ad blocker.
Firefox, it has ublock origin
Firefox.
Firefox. I ain't using anything else.
I'm using Firefox too rn. I was using Vivaldi but I decided that it was time to abandon chromium.
Mull plus uBlock and Sponsorblock addons.
Firefox with a handful of extensions for day to day use
I keep Brave with custom configuration ready for when extra privacy is needed. Firefox based browsers on Android are currently missing site isolation so that's what privacy guides recommends for the time being.

It might be cool to see something like Zen on Android, but I'm not sure what changes I'd like to see aesthetics / features wise. Brave looks fancier, but I find it annoying to use for a number of reasons. Off the top of my head
-
when you close a tab, the undo message stays for way too long and can't be dismissed
-
Unable to disable chromecast
What Firefox extensions are you using on mobile? I have a few (e.g. uBlock Origin), but I'm always interested in hearing about other good ones.
uBlock Origin is the main one
Search by Image and Web Archives are two others that I like to have on mobile
I'd love to learn some more as well :)
Cool, thanks.
Firefox. Everyone complains about it but it's never given me any problems. Adblock works great!
I"ve been using Fennec as my default.
Firefox for the add-ons, sync, and other features, but I have set Firefox Focus as the default that most apps open pages in. From there I can open pages in regular Firefox if I need or want to. Firefox Focus acts as a sort of default private browsing mode.
Mull (Firefox)
Mull & brave
I'll get killed here.
Opera. Works pretty well with always on desktop mode (scaling) and has a nice UI. I also occasionally use the built-in VPN to bypass my DNS blocking quickly.
I have to keep using Firefox for the mobile add-ons and because my account is synced with my desktop browser. I'm not willing to switch unless a better desktop/mobile pair comes along.
I use Mull (hardened firefox) and Cromite (chromium but a bit hardened and an ad-blocker)
Mull and Vivaldi.
Exactly my same combo with Vivaldi a Chromium backup
I'm using Vivaldi.
I like Vivaldi a lot
Vivaldi works so good on my phone it's insane. Outlook, Teams, Workday, and so many other work apps I no longer need to have because Vivaldi just runs them so smooth.
Iceraven (firefox fork that lets me do more with it) and Mull.
Went from Firefox to Brave, because the UX is better by a longshot. Also supports accountless sync.
Firefox for general use. TOR browser (Firefox) for everything else. Privacy, security, and ad blocking are paramount.
firefox fork, iceraven. i got some issues in firefox that's why i'm using its fork
Can I ask what issues? I'm using Firefox but open to changing if there's better options!
I know a lot of the current issues are about ideology and privacy. Mozilla seemingly pivoting away from fighting for privacy and into AI, supposedly most recently including integration with remote AI, including Google's, while not implementing the top feature requests... I'm personally sticking with Firefox for now, but it does make me wary.
i dont know if it's just me but since i updated firefox in february this year, if i close firefox with a tabs open, the tabs are gone too. i cant find the settings on it but in iceraven

Kiwi browser! It's the best!! Built in ad blocker, privacy respecting, can use extensions, very customizable, and so much more!

Another Kiwi user here. Used it since it was the only real option to adblock on Android and haven't found a need to switch yet.
Too bad it's kinda dead

I use chrome (because of work) Firefox and duckduckgo.
Vivaldi has been very good on my desktop as well as on Android. It's a chrome fork made by some people who left the Opera dev team.
Tried all. Brave works perfectly on Android. No need for extra add-ons etc.
