hi so i have been using iceraven for a while and i have been recommended mull alot and i wonder if iceraven is good cause i love how you can add extensions made for the pc version of firefox
Don't know too much about Iceraven. Just wanted to throw in Fennec, which is basically Firefox with telemetry removed plus add-on support. Also has about: config. It think it gets updates more frequently.
Just a general question for the participants here:
Do you think firefox forks are maintained/more secure than the OG Firefox from Mozilla? I get that the forks have better privacy features enabled by default or useful features which make it functionally better...BUT....in terms of straight up security and responding to exploits and patching quickly, etc, would OG Firefox from Mozilla be better? Just curious what ya'll think.
Yea that was my thinking. If you can just tweak regular Firefox to suit your needs, and it's kept up to date and very actively maintained, why not just use regular firefox?
So, I've used Palemoon, Fennec, Librewolf, and others. My logic is this:
Firefox is my daily driver. But with ADHD, I tend to have a couple hundred tabs open at a time.
I have a shitty old computer from 2013, so when I play intense games I like to close the browser to free up some RAMs.
But but but, what if I gotta look up something?
"How to beat it to the water temple?"
"How to recipe for botany pots?"
"How is quake?"
"Cheat Engine table for Mario 3d World please"
Sometimes I need to alt-tab out and open up a browser that won't open a whole bag of RAM-eating dicks at me, just to get some quick lookup answers.
So I keep Librewolf on there as a backup for these situations. I'm open to alternatives, as anyone should be!
