Kann es sein, dass #AdvancedPrivacy halluziniert?
Auf meinem bisherigen Smartphone ist auch der #fossbrowser installiert. Version und Installationsquelle identisch. #exodus findet keinen einzigen Tracker. Advanced Privacy (AP) angeblich 4!?? Beim #privacybrowser Exodus 0, AP 1...
#firefoxklar AP 4, die Exodus nicht findet, dafür kennt Exodus 2, die AP nicht findet...
(Die Version, die Exodus untersucht hat, ist 149, nicht 150)
HÄ?? Wem soll ich glauben??

Do you know how much data Google Chrome quietly collects about you? From your browsing history to device details, everything is logged. Here is how to lock your Chrome privacy settings in a few minutes. https://windowspost.com/chrome-privacy-settings/

Ahem. You're a former candidate who did not get elected. There's no failure in that.

@alpacaherder.bsky.social

(Can't open that Blue Sky link with #Fedilab or #PrivacyBrowser, even with Javascript turned on. Makes me wonder what they're doing with their code)

@thrillfall @thorcik @fdroidorg @Codeberg

It is on us as FLOSS community to find solutions and to help. You can use the browsers provided by #divestos
https://divestos.org/apks/official/fdroid/repo/

Other browsers, like #privacybrowser, are still available on fdroid.

Moreover, as long as the fdorid folks do this on voluntary basis withe adequate warnings they are by better than many others. Thanks fdroid, keep rocking.

@claudiom

I'm not sure those browser usage stats are accurate. I use @privacybrowser on my phone and #Firefox (with multiple profiles) on the desktop. My #PrivacyBrowser emits "UserAgent: Chrome on Android", and the various desktop profiles lie about their UserAgent too.

Why? Because websites are back to "This site works best with Chrome; please update to a modern browser."

To which I say "No, you broken website. Get yourself a competent web developer."

👌 Nice to have these #PrivacyBrowser settings when clicking in some links people share here.

Most people will tell you that there are only two actively developed web browsers, Firefox and Chromium, and that all others are built on the source code of one of these two (or at least their rendering engine). But I'm aware of at least 2 working browsers that (AFAIK) are not based on either;

* Dooble: https://textbrowser.github.io/dooble/

* Privacy Browser: https://www.stoutner.com/privacy-browser-pc/

Am I wrong about these? (Edit: yes) Anyone know of others?

Habe auch versucht, den #PrivacyBrowser statt Foss Browser zu nehmen. Da klappt es auch nicht mit dem #Darkmode

Oder gibt es evtl. andere gute #Browser von #fdroid, welche vom #Datenschutz her zu empfehlen sind?

Der von Samsung vorinstallierte Browser funktioniert mit Darkmode, möchte ich aber nicht gern benutzen.

Und die #Umleitung zu #Nitter funktioniert auch nicht mehr seit dem letzten Update vom #FossBrowser 😪

Yay for using #Javascript for page behaviour enhancement, without #JavascriptDependence! https://matrix.org works great on #PrivacyBrowser with Javascript and cookies turned off.

@thibaultamartin @andybalaam

@privacybrowser Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to enjoying #PrivacyBrowser on #Linux as well 😀 Thank you for your amazing work and best wishes for 2023.

@Khrys @tofeo
Je confirme: (je tourne sous /e/OS, tout est à jour)
#Firefox : aïe mes yeux
#TorBrowser : pas mieux
#PrivacyBrowser : nickel

Merci, je l'avais pas ;)

Раньше пробовал #FOSSBrowser и #PrivacyBrowser, но я ими не могу пользоваться. При скролле Misskey страница трясётся как желе во все стороны. Жутко бесит.

I wrote a blog post about a blog post Mojeek wrote about Privacy Browser. It is blog post inception.

@okpierre
This is often an issue if you use a #privacyBrowser like #TorBrowser. Even #Pleroma suffers from this.

In the cases that we've seen its because the browser doesn't support #svg images that are often used for such #icons.

There are ways around it, such as #unicode symbols or simply a #PNG version. You may need to fork the project to implement it if devs are unwilling to cater to the needs of #privacy conscious users.
@pixelfed

I have 3 www browsers on my phone because I can't decide which one to use.

#Vanadium by GrapheneOS

#privacybrowser

#fennec

Fennec is the only one I don't actually like. But I keep it because I keep finding passwords saved there that I don't have in #pass yet.

@echolib la page se load pas sur #privacybrowser

Un altro browser per Android, molto meno famoso dei più blasonati, è Privacy Browser. Sicuro, veloce e super personalizzabile!
#alternative #android #privacybrowser #browser #privacy // LINK -> https://www.lealternative.net/2020/07/03/privacy-browser/

Parliamo di un altro browser per Android, meno conosciuto degli altri ma altrettanto sicuro ed interessante. Conoscete già Privacy Browser?

And if you thought: just activate #javascript and allow #cookies, lower #security and #privacy, so the site will let me download time tables?

Yeah, about that.

These #webdevs did something really sneaky. They powered their #webforms with a very old version of #ASPNet. So the forms work only in very special web browsers. If you happen to prefer #Stoutner's #PrivacyBrowser, no downloads for you!
