I switched to Vivaldi recently and it's alright. I'll say the Brave ad blocking is solid and the android app works better than Firefox mobile.

I think the only real solution to protect ourselves is to stop using any browsers.
Any alternative on iOS and android? Can't find any good one.. And I'm a GOS user very privacy aware but honestly brave is the only browser I know that blocks ads
if you're already using GOS, just use vanadium then, and block ads on the dns-level (eg by setting nextdns or adguard as "private dns" on your phone). works fine for me!
Kagi Orion, DDG, Safari with Ublock?
A Lemmy user made a nice “low data” browser called Narrow32.
I'm trying out waterfox on GOS with UBO and it's working pretty good, though I still mostly use vanadium out of habit (wish it had better ad blocking though). Gotta use aurora store for it though since it isn't on F-droid which is annoying.
“Privacy-focused browser”
paid for by the largest corporate espionage agency that spies on Americans for the US government
I need a lenticular post.
Hey! Put some (dis)respect on the man's name! Brave is made by the (idiotic) guy that made the backbone of modern interactive web(JavaScript) , Brandon Eich! He was one of the founders of Mozilla!
I used brave for a while, I got 10$ I also got 10$ from Honey, apparently only scams give me anything
Brave is fine. But it is more due to my employer tolerating it instead of insisting on Chrome. I really like how you turn the privacy setting up to 11 and make websurfing borderline impossible.
Brave on Android is a turn-key (no configuration meshugas) adblocking solution for Youtube that let's me watch my subscribed channels without breaking on updates.
Would newpipe, pipepipe, or Firefox on android with ublock origin extension work?
I use newpipe and it doesn't have YouTube ads. But I don't follow any subscribers, so I don't know if they include that functionality.
Firefox+ublock works for me
