IronFox is closer to LibreWolf on mobile then IceRaven.

• LibreWolf: Focuses on privacy + security
• IronFox: Focuses on privacy + security
• IceRaven: Focuses on customizability

Both IronFox and IceRaven have extension support :)

How about:

• uBlock Origin: To block parts of a web-page
• GreaseMonkey / TamperMonkey / ViolentMonkey: To alter request/responses through JavaScript

Perhaps one of those can suite your needs

If you’re talking about a wallet,
what’s wrong with Monerujo?
https://www.monerujo.app/

Been using it for a while, open source,
scanned for trackers, contains none.

You do need to add their own repo to F-Droid to download it from there though:

Booo, I gladly paid,
now I’m forced into becoming the product,
through data collection…

Best mod ever! <3

Vibe Coding: To generate AI slop code without understanding, nor manually reviewing/altering said generated slop.

It literally means, produce low-quality work.

I get the sentiment,
however when the user base of a FOSS alternative grows beyond the closed source alternative, a switch can happen.

So it would be a good thing to have a FOSS alternative out there, which can accumulate a user base over time.

Without any alternatives being developed,
a switch can never happen.

After a brief scroll through their source repo, I think it’s a set of patches which gets applied by a script while compiling the browser from source.

So it’s unlikely that it will be susceptible,
unless they forget to patch some telemetry out during a release, which is unlikely, since the projects goal is data privacy + security.

Fork of FireFox,
with a focus on data privacy + security:

I’d also like to add IronFox,
similar to LibreWolf, but for mobile:

Hi OP, I do the same thing during winters.

For XMR,
you can increase the profits a bit with XmrVsBeast + Gupaxx

I lately have a saying:
“If it’s not FOSS, it’s not worth your time”

YouTube has been cracking down on alternative frontends.

Vanilla Invidious currently doesn’t work well,
so most hosters paused and/or gave up.

Fijxu runs a fork of Invidious,
with their own modifications implemented to circumvent the blocks,
here’s the source code if you’re interested:
https://git.nadeko.net/Fijxu/invidious

I’ve got big respect for Fijxu,
he’s been doing a very good job of keeping Invidious alive + fighting against the YouTube crackdown lately, basically all on his own.

If you can please consider:

• Donating for their work/hosting
• Hosting their fork on your own
• Solving open issues with pull requests to their fork

All the above can help Fijxu,
since currently he’s mostly fighting a big tech giant all on his own.

Perhaps Monero bounties has something?

You can get paid in XMR for helping the community build tools that help the ecosystem.

Day 1 8:30 - I’ll fix this in a few minutes
Day 1 8:30 - 17:00 - Head to desk banging
Day 1 17:00 - Fuck you and see you tomorrow
Day 2 8:45 - Fuck that was an easy fix,
why didn’t I think of that yesterday

OP I appreciate the reasoning.
But I’d advise against it,
and would recommend users to delete their Facebook account asap.

Why? 4-5 years ago I already noticed the “illusion of free speech” on Facebook.

The platform is a data farm,
but I’m a data privacy advocate,
so I regularly posted data privacy articles/tools.

Which went against the best interest of Facebook, so they simply held back that content from nearly everyone’s feed, resulting in it getting nearly zero attention.

But if I posted a dumb meme,
it would get a lot of attention.

I’ve asked around to friends back in the day who where scrolling online if they saw my data privacy posts, none did.

So staying on the platform to advertise things that go against Facebooks best interest, will likely not yield good results.

However deleting your account,
is a great conversation starter that can easily be directed into WOM (Word of Mouth) marketing, to teach your friends and family about Fediverse tools.

It does seem interesting,
but I remain skeptical.

This means putting your trust in Obscura, since they’re the 1st hop, receiving your data without additional encryption, a new player, who yet has to prove that they’re trustworthy.

Sure their Github may show great software, but that doesn’t mean we can see which software they might additionally install on their servers.

Meanwhile Mullvad has already been proven to be trustworthy through the best possible review any VPN company can receive, being: Server seized by the feds, but zero useful info retrieved by them.

Which proves they back up their claim of being a No-Log VPN.

Due to this I trust Mullvad,
and don’t have any issues with sending them my data.

But I can’t put the same faith in Obscura yet, not before they receive a similar “review”.

That’s nice and all,
but when will they tackle loot boxes?

That shit has pushed plenty of minors into gambling addictions, but they don’t crack down on it, since they get a sweet cut of it all.

Valve in general isn’t the worst company,
but they’re far from innocent as well.

Yes Fediverse software can challenge the tech giants,
but we can and must expect them to fight against it as soon as it gets on their radar!

They’ll likely will attempt to do so by:

• Censorship: Keeping it out of the feeds/search results of their users.
• Propaganda: Putting it in a bad spotlight (e.g. marking it as security risks on their own platforms).
• Direct Attacks: E.g. DDoS attacks and/or bot user networks spreading bad content on the Fediverse platforms.

We should already try to harness ourselves against the direct attacks.
And help with spreading Fediverse software through WOM (Word-Of-Mouth) marketing,
since the tech giants certainly will not help it spread themselves.

The Fediverse is one of the few sparks of hope I have remaining lately,
let us ignite these sparks together into something bright!

Woah the lawsuit company that makes games on the side did a thing other then filing lawsuits?

Doesn’t matter, I won’t be spending any more money on Nintendouch products.

They ruined enough fan projects for me to start hating them.

And I have not even touched the subject of the calculated breaking point in the original Switch, better known as Joy-Cons.

Ahhh sad to hear, but thanks for your reply,
now I know that I can stop searching,
and start hoping for quick implementation of Wireguard config support for Netbird :)
