Delet chrome install firefax
I use firefox focus for basically everything on android. It hasn’t skipped a beat since release and has all the adblocking and anti-tracking built in.
Feel the breeze in your hair and step away from chrome
Is there no way to add extensions to focus? Or to open new tabs directly? (without having to click any links firsts)
I ask because it doesn’t block everything and it’s annoying having to work around the 1 tab limit.
Firefox is great on Android. When was the last time you tried Firefox for Android? It has had major overhauls to its underlying code. To be clear, Firefox on iOS is a totally different story because on iOS it isn’t actually Firefox due to Apple requiring all third party browsers on iOS to be Safari running a UI skin rather than having their own engine.
I use it instead of Chrome because unlike Chrome it lets me run all the add-ons. Since it lets me run add-ons like Ublock Origin and already just doesn’t load a lot of the JavaScript tracking code websites use, it also is more responsive than Chrome, pages load faster, and uses less memory. Most importantly Firefox on Android let’s me run the Dark Reader addon, so websites don’t look like shit and browsing uses less battery.
Brave isn’t a legitimate alternative even though it allows add-ons because it’s not just Chromium based but is a Peter Theil backed user data harvesting and cryptocurrency scheme that just lies to their users with privacy theater bullshit.

this morning. And it crashed

not in my experience. Chrome is noticeably faster for me

yeah, I use firefox sometimes because of extensions too, but chrome is just better overall. I think I’m gonna find some chromium-based browser that lets me use extensions
I gotta say that since I got my latest phone firefox fucking blows. It simply doesn’t work. Like fails to react to input. Crashes.
It always worked great on other devices. So I know it is possible. But if this was my only experience I would assume it was hot trash.
Not that I’ve gone so far as to open up chrome or anything.
Install Hexbear or you’re a revisionist
It’s a PWA. On Android it’s just a bookmark to the website in Chrome but with some extra features. I use Mastodon that way, it’s way better than any of the apps
:hexbear-chapochat: Install Hexbear Install
Well? Install hexbear
you should do it, it’s just like BonziBuddy but with a communist bear that warns you whenever you wander into an online space tainted by liberal revisionism
oh man, flashback to installing BonziBuddy and getting yelled at by my dad
