Firefox needs a 180° turn to full privacy out of the box. (connect.mozilla.org)

Its the only thing making is a good choice, while people choose Brave, TorBrowser or Librewolf instead.

Come and join the discussion.

Firefox needs to have some courage. Get rid of all those fake funding by Ad companies. Block Ads and trackers by default. Actually. Dont use damn Google as that contract will run out anyways.

Chrome is the Google browser. Firefox simply offering nothing more (on the outside) than it.

What do you think? Do you use Firefox out of the Box? Or another browser?

Used to use arkenfox, then switched to LibreWolf. Eventually switched back to Firefox w/ Betterfox cuz i got annoyed with some websites and QR codes breaking

QR codes breaking??

What is betterfox?

You can check out Betterfox here, its a user.js file that focuses having a balance between privacy and convenience (with less website breakage cuz it's not as strict like something like arkenfox)
