What's your current favorite browser for Android?

Firefox + the following addons:
TWP
uBlock origin
Dark Reader
Consent-o-matic

Is TWP "Translate Web Pages"? Android Firefox has a built-in feature for that, since like this version or so. 🙃
- Yep.
  But I like that better as I can summon it by my own will and feel like it can translate some pages better than others (detection is a bit spotty)
How has your experience with Content-O-Matic been? I noticed mixed reviews.

Have you tested any alternatives for handling gdpr pop-ups?
- I'm on "I still don't care about cookies". As opposed to Consent-o-matic, it doesn't attempt to opt-out, which makes it more reliable, but you want to use it together with Cookie AutoDelete.
- 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 because Ublock Origin is the best ad blocker.

firefox, because ublock origin and sync with my desktop pc: same bookmarks on both and sending tabs to other device when i need to.

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, it has ublock origin

Firefox.

Firefox. I ain't using anything else.

Firefox. Perfect? No. But we gotta fight the Chrome monopoly. And most (all, I'm pretty sure) other browsers for Android are Chromium based. Using one of those still hands Google control of the web.

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.

Since you have SponsorBlock installed, I assume you use it to watch YouTube videos? Why don't you just use LibreTube or Tubular (NewPipe fork with built-in SponsorBlock and Return YouTube Dislike)?

Firefox because it works perfectly for me, and it's customizable with extensions.

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 :)

I"ve been using Fennec as my default.

Firefox. Everyone complains about it but it's never given me any problems. Adblock works great!

Mull (Firefox)

Mull (available on F-Droid)...it's like a hardened version of Firefox

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 & 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'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.

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.

Mull and Vivaldi.

Exactly my same combo with Vivaldi a Chromium backup

I use Mull (hardened firefox) and Cromite (chromium but a bit hardened and an ad-blocker)

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.

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.
Yes! I use Kiwi daily, as well as Firefox. Some things work better in one, some the other. It's a shame it seems to be abandoned (no updates since April).
Too bad it's kinda dead

Mull with plenty of extensions and changes in about:config and JavaScript off by default.

Vanadium if on GrapheneOS if more features needed (i.e. JavaScript), barring that, Mulch appears to be equivalent.

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
Same :D

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.

Kiwi browser is nice. Same clean UI as Chrome you can install extensions

Loved it & used it for such a long time because at the time it was the only android browser with extension capability ...but it's on an outdated version of Chromium & development seems to have ceased. Switched to Firefox which is great, though I still miss "open new tab in group"

I use chrome (because of work) Firefox and duckduckgo.

Tried all. Brave works perfectly on Android. No need for extra add-ons etc.

Samsung

Iceraven

Brave!

I switch between Firefox and Brave, I use Brave because it works a lot better with YouTube.

It blocks ads really well, and the background play works nicely. YouTube is quite clunky in Firefox compared to Brave

I use the Video Background Play Fix extension in Firefox for Android

Zen Browser, which is based on Firefox. Has few neat features like split view

It’s not available on Android.

I like Zen though
- Oops, completely missed the Android part in the title.
Damn if a mobile browser based on Firefox with a UI as good as Zen existed I would switch to it in a heartbeat!

Chrome. ~pls don't hurt me~

I’m afraid I have to hurt you, sir
anything specific that firefox lacks that is keeping you on chrome?
- Not the one you replied to but I'm also on Chrome. Haven't found a good reason to switch.
