Everybody in the know is already using privacy forks on PC and phones... i guess it is time to get normies on boarded.

Man, they really are making it complicated though. If you want to fight them, jgot to keep switching. They know normies won't :/

Any recommendations of a good alternative on android? I'm thinking I'll move to librewolf on desktop but they don't appear to have an android version.

I use Fennec F-Droid on Android and LibreWolf on Linux/Mac/Windows.

Thanks for the recommendation :D

I use a fork from F-Droid called Fennec. I'm not sure off the top of my head how closely it tracks with upstream feature-wise but I know it strips out all of Mozilla's tracking components and it's always updated within a couple days of the upstream release.

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out!

I do like Mull, but I'm also uninformed and I don't use my mobile browser all too much.

Fair enough, research time for me! Thanks for the reply
