I currently use Brave and am curious about the pros and cons of both since I see many people recommend Firefox.

Hardened Firefox (BetterFox user.js config) is my go to. Good browser. Do now want monopoly of Chromium.

I recently made the move to librewolf(windows) and mull(android). Essentially just Firefox but with more protection. Super easy switch, hardly notice a difference so far.

I just wanted to switch also this week but I am wondering can you sync your bookmarks etc. between Librewolf and Mull?

They both use ff sync so yeah

Ehh....not sure yet 😅

This. I've moved to those browsers some time ago and I'm very satisfied. uBO is also a MUST.

Both install it by default so it's all good, just edit the filter lists

How does betterFox compare to arkenfox?

[–] Sizably8826 2 points 1 year ago

betterfox does have privacy resist fingerprint on, so breaks less site.

It required less manual tweaking, better defaults for me and many people around.
