Incognito was never meant to make you think you’re hiding anything from the browser that you’re typing everything into. It’s about loading a website without any prior context (i.e. cookies) and not saving the state when you’re done.
Incognito is useful for debugging cookie state issues without having to nuke your existing cache only to find out it wasn’t the issue.
It’s also useful when you have to log in on someone else’ computer. Open incognito, log in, do your business, close the window. No risk of accidentally staying logged in. (But if they’re actively trying to mitm you, incognito won’t matter. Just don’t use any devices that person has access to).
You forgot the #1 purpose: having a wank and leaving no browser history involving midgets and bukkake
Sure, but we all mostly use it for porn
My brother in christ, plese get yourself a second browser profile. Keeping a history and bookmarks are wankchanging.
I don’t know if Jesus is on board with this
Yup
Finally, someone else who understands.
I switched to firefox
I use Arch, btw

I’ve been having trouble with it on in-browser video calls, so now I also use opera
Btw, Opera is owned by a chinese company and is about as private as google chrome.
b-but funny social media account!!!
Opera is probably the worst you can use. Browsers for privacy
Meh. Firefox is the best browser if you care about privacy and FOSS.
Laughes in Brave.
lololol. The browser that’s packed to the brim with crypto bullshit? You gotta be kidding me.
I don’t get why people rave about brave. It is chrome with affiliate links baked in.
LibreWolf. Hardened Firefox. Brave. Default Firefox. Something. PLEASENOTCHROME
I love Firefox and will continue using it until they shit all over adblockers too. Which I don’t really see them doing, but ya never know. Eventually, when there’s just no way to avoid ads, I’ll stop using the internet lmao
Brave does very little to control Google’s influence on the web. Better than Chrome, but not by much.
Really if we wan the open internet to continue Firefox (and derivatives) or Safari the only options. I’m still sad that Edge was replaced by Chromium. Even though Microsoft isn’t great it is another engine that Google needs to convince to implement their crap.
When Chrome was first launched, so many people thought Incognito would be useless. Little did they know.
Incognito is useless though, it hides your history from only you. Google stores, ISP stores, that site stores, just your browser forgets.
Vivaldi or brave (or both)
Real ones use tor browser
