Librewolf is great, but now some stupid sites require chromium-based browsers to work. E.g: Microsoft teams.

  • Ungoogled chromium? problem is that it’s worse in fingerprinting compared to Brave. See: https://privacytests.org/
  • Brave: bloated and filled with unnecessary features.

Why isn’t there a Brave fork yet that gets rid of the crypto junk?

      This works very well, I have yet to run into a site that is broken on FF/LW, they just want a chrome user-agent for whatever reason.

    It probably boils down to funding. People need to get paid at the end of the day. The ultimate solution is a paid browser that works only in the user’s interest, but people are spoiled now. They want everything for free, and they want it to work perfectly also. The reality is that nothing is free in life. You either pay with money or in another currency (your info).

    I would suggest not using sites and services that require a certain browser. That is the only way to counter this attitude of Google. If you have to for your job or something, use Brave only for that and keep everything important on librewolf.
