For Android users seeking a privacy-focused browser, Privacy Guides recommends Mull:

Mull is a privacy oriented and deblobbed Android browser based on Firefox. Compared to Firefox, it offers much greater fingerprinting protection out of the box, and disables JavaScript Just-in-Time (JIT) compilation for enhanced security. It also removes all proprietary elements from Firefox, such as replacing Google Play Services references.

Mull enables many features upstreamed by the Tor uplift project using preferences from Arkenfox. Proprietary blobs are removed from Mozilla’s code using the scripts developed for Fennec F-Droid.

    Until Firefox mobile has a functional home button in the toolbar then I don’t care what the fuck the do because I won’t be using it. Dumb as fuck not to have it.

      What is your home page that you need access to it so conveniently?
      Besides, new tab can be set to a webpage instead of a blank tab

        The dashboard page that I selfhost that shows me status of different things I want to see, gives me access to all my services, and has all my favorite links on it.

              Yeah, on desktop you can, I’ve used Firefox on desktop since it was called Phoenix and never used anything else… 20+ years. Firefox mobile is not usable to my workflows without a functional home button.

        And you can’t customize where that home button does, making it useless. You can not set it to a specific URL, I want to set it to the dashboard page that I selfhost that shows me status of different things I want to see, gives me access to all my services, and has all my favorite links on it.
