What open source Android browser app to use? (lemmy.austinwadeheller.com)

I want to find or contribute to an open source Android app that behaves as a browser so that I can incorporate saving web pages to a specified (self-hosted) wallabag docker instance. Any suggestions?

The Mull browser from F-Droid is a great option, especially if Firefox is your main browser on your computer. It's one of the few mobile browsers with the ability to use extensions, so hopefully this will make utilizing the wallabag extension easier to pull off.

+1 for Mull. Been using it for months now with no issue after switching from Firefox.

What are some of the advantages over the Android Firefox mobile browser? Is it basically a Firefox fork with stricter privacy policies?

Ya, it's a hardened mobile Firefox. I've never used Firefox on mobile, just Mull, so I'm not too sure on the specific differences.
