  1. #IronFox v154.0 is now available, go update! :)

    ironfoxoss.org/releases/#154.0

    NOTE: This release is unfortunately not yet available on Accrescent, due to issues with the size of the output bundle. We are working to resolve the issue ASAP, and will keep you posted.

  2. #Ironfox on Android doesn't have a "reader mode" like desktop LibreWolf and others??

  3. This is the phone I'm talking about that I revived, the on5xelte. Released in 2016. I think we got this when we were in Australia way back then. Passed down from my family and now to me, the caretaker of old, forgotten and dead phones and tablets.

    I installed F-Droid then Termux, some Fossify apps, Ironfox, Rethink app and Open Camera cos I modded it and I didn't put GApps on it so no android webview thingy and deffo no google play services.

    Battery's still good but it uses Micro-USB lmao. I have a ton of Micro-USB cables tho so it was no problem. Screen's still alright, it's just really fucking small for my big bear paws. Volume button's spotty though.

    God, 10 years ago was pretty alright. Phones sucked, computer parts kinda sucked but they were pretty fucking affordable back then.

  5. 🚨 New blog post: When Privacy Tools Fight Each Other – IronFox, Mullvad DNS and Quad9

    In my latest article, I explain how I tracked down the problem, the online tools I used to verify it, why browser-level DNS can override system settings, and the simple change that solved everything.

  6. 🚨 New blog post: When Privacy Tools Fight Each Other – IronFox, Mullvad DNS and Quad9

    I recently ran into a strange issue where websites loaded slowly and HTTPS connections randomly failed in IronFox. At first, I suspected the browser, but the real cause turned out to be a hidden DNS over HTTPS configuration that overrode my Android Private DNS settings.

    In this post, I walk through the troubleshooting process, explain how I discovered IronFox was using Mullvad DNS instead of Quad9, share the tools I used to diagnose the problem, and show the simple fix that restored normal HTTPS connectivity.

    It's a good reminder that adding more privacy layers doesn't always improve your setup—understanding how they interact is just as important.

  9. @norbert Time to upgrade to #Ironfox by @celenity (formerly known as Mull browser) – think Firefox without the bad parts.

  10. How do you get FIDO2 working on Ironfox on an of-the-shelf android (yeah I know... this is the bigger problem)? I can't use `s1m.hwfido2provider` because my device seems to be outdated. And I'm to stupid to setup microG. Any other options?

  11. @celenity I cannot seem to disable #DoH / #DNSoverHTTPS on the latest #IronFox release (not sure about before). Despite changing settings it ways shows a DoH server in use in about:networking#dns even after a fully restarting the app.

    Can you check that out?

    Edit: never mind. The cause was #grapheneOS adding new #VPN interfaces as "always on". 🙄 Ughhh, was almost going crazy.

  12. @rixx I no longer trust Firefox. On Android, I switched to #Ironfox by @celenity. On Linux, I use @librewolf.
