I use two browsers. Brave and Firefox.
The Brave browser is based on Chrome but has all the Google tracking removed. Brave is all about privacy. You have “shields” where you can block tracking, fingerprinting and so forth. Facebook, Google and more tend to try to track you and what you do on the internet… and indeed, in the real world. Brave attempts to stop that. On top of this I have “Trackers and Ad blocking” set to aggressive. I don’t want them tracking me. I don’t want Google to make a “profile” of me.
I often re-visit this, checking that Brave is still the number one for privacy, and it usually is. There are others like the Tor Browser, that is based on Firefox, though I find it clunky and probably way more hard core for privacy than I need to be, I’m not exploring the Dark Web!
Brave has a bunch of other features which are interesting. They have their own search engine, a wallet for crypto and “Rewards” where you can tip other websites and sent them BAT (this is a crypto currency “Basic Attention Token”. Also, I can view ads if you want to make money.
I use Brave for normal browsing.
I have Firefox also but the developer version. This is a way to keep my webdesign separate from my normal internet use. Firefox like to say they are a privacy browser but as standard it’s not as good as Brave for that. I add the extension “uBlock” which then gets it closer to Brave. On top of this I still have Firefox tracking protection set to “Strict”.
Admittedly I don’t use most of the developer add ons for Firefox but it is handy to have two browsers running so I can chop and change. I was a devoted user of Firefox standard edition in the past but I migrated to Brave. Then, when Mozilla made the developer edition, it was handy to use Firefox again for a specific role.
Mobile: as an aside… I only use Brave on my mobile phone.
