Firefox on Android is really nice and meets most of these. Also having full extension support is a huge plus.
Fennec is just Firefox with privacy defaults.
What are you even talking about, Firefox on android sucks. It is so outdated design wise and just terrible to use, and the download list doesnt show you download history for some reason. Firefox on other OS's work great, I even use it as my daily driver but on android. Uff no way.
Sure, the extensions are great, fantastic even. But its the only pro in a sea of cons.🤷
No idea what you're talking about as I've had none of these issues. Also Firefox on iOS isn't actually Firefox, it's just another reskined webkit browser.
I was never talking about the iOS variant. I meant the android version was bad. Sorry for the misunderstanding then.
I'm talking about the Android version. You mentioned Firefox on other OSs is great so I assumed you were talking about iOS, which is not actually Firefox.
Sorry, not an iPhone user. I just meant the windows and Linux ones were better.
I mean, no shit. Of course the fully fledged PC version is better than the mobile counterpart lol, I'd say that's a given for any browser.
In comparison, with other multiplatform alternatives its still bad in my opinion
So what do you browse on Android with, then?
I just use brave and arcsearch. I'm not saying they are great alternative and completely devoid of issues but personally I'll rather use them than Firefox in android(specifically the android version), I love ZEN browser its my daily driver on my PC but the android one, I just can't.
I barely use Firefox because i typical use chrome but if all my shit was in Firefox it's absolutely fine. I'd say there are certain parts of Firefox that is actually just better than chrome on Android
