... auch Werbe Blocker für iOS mit bringt. Und die restlichen Sicherheitsfunktionen sind auch überzeugend. Unnötige Sachen wie KI und Wallet kann man abschalten. Und wenn ich das richtig weiß, kann man eine Gerätesync ohne Konto anlegen, im Gegensatz zu Firefox. Außerdem habe ich meine RSS Feeds nach Nextcloud News umgezogen und das in der iPhone App Fiery Feeds gesynct. Wieder ein Account weniger. #diday #dutgemacht #brave #firefox #fieryFeeds 2/2

#Brave #Origin zeigt sich als schlanker #Browser ohne Ballast Brave hat mit #Brave_Origin einen interessanten Browser im Angebot, der auf überflüssige Extras verzichtet und sich klar auf #Privatsphäre und #Geschwindigkeit konzentriert. #Linux‑Nutzer können ihn kostenlos verwenden und sofort starten. Wer macOS oder Windows nutzt, wird jedoch mit einmalig 59,99 $ zur Kasse gebeten. Origin entfernt viele Zusatzfunktionen des normalen Brave Browsers.

I got tired of constantly tweaking and fiddling with Ungoogled Chromium, which I've been using for years, so I finally switched to @brave@mastodon.social. Here, Incognito mode uses Tor, and vertical tabs work perfectly with full hiding. @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net would otherwise be my top choice, but it has some weird edge-case bugs, like the fact that not all extensions work in incognito mode. There are many good, minimal and private browsers available, but Google Meet or Netflix don't work on them (because of DRM and Widevine...) The sad truth is that most browsers are bloated crap. As a CSS person, I'm just not interested in the slow progress of Firefox-based browsers, I need latest web standards and something Chrome-based to use the modern web. Project Ladybird sounds interesting. They are writing the entire browser from the ground up, including the engine... pretty crazy stuff. I wish them luck and success. #Browsers #Brave #Chrome #Chromium #Privacy
