Or duckduckgo. Or Brave. Or Opera. Or Tor.

I have yet to try the last two. I really enjoy duckduckgo on my phone, but I know there was some controversy. I guess I’m lazy but I love the fire button that burns away all your open tabs and history in one click. Started using Brave recently and I kind of enjoy how it reports how much stuff its blocked and the breakdown of what it all is. I have had no noticeable issues with either one.

ddg,brave and opera are chromium based.

And Tor Browser is Firefox based, so this is still a two player game. Unless you like navigating a GDPR banner on Lynx.

Duckduckgo is a firefox addon for desktop. On iOS it utilizes a fork of Safari.

The others I’m not sure about, but a quick search shows me that I gotta delete Brave. Damn. Google is fucking insidious

Why would you mention an add-on here? Anyway, there's a ddg browser that's available for both android and windows, and is chromium based.

[-] Broken_Monitor@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

I use it on my phone, and on the phone ddg is it’s own separate browser.

It is not. It uses the Safari webkit.

I guess you're talking about iOS, so yeah they had no choice, everything is Safari based there (for now). But on android, as I mentioned at my comment above, it's chromium based.
