This is one of those many posts that leaves me wondering, "Why do you want to know?" "What are you going to do with the information?"
What are you worried they're going to do with it?
Somehow target us with ads.

Strange question, lol.
There's a lot of people trying to push Firefox on Lemmy lately.
Not just lately. Feels like it always has been like that.
Use anything else? Clearly you’re an idiot /s
It's not that you're an idiot, but it's wise to avoid using a chromium/blink based browser since they are building a dangerous monopoly. Firefox is the best known alternative, but there are a couple other options.
Falkon is actually also nice. But nobody carws about it so no real addons and only maintenance support.
I have no idea who does QTWebengine, but its good
I mean its the only FOSS fully customizable and non big-Corp browser that you can harden towards Tor-Browser, use for i2p and so much more
I know, because there are so many people on here telling me.
At least it's better than on reddit where if you dare mention a browser you'll get a few comments about how great Brave is
I use both Firefox and Brave. I'm not sure if that makes me an asshole or not.
Reminds me all those crypto people shilling their worthless token
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You're right though, gonna go edit my reply.
Firefox is the only mainstream browser that supports ublock origin on mobile in my experience. Although they've made some very weird decisions settings wise over the years. Like not letting you touch "hidden" settings anymore
Brave has a built in adblock and I find the browser better All around for Android. FF all the way on desktop though
Pixel 6 with GrapheneOS using Firefox.
S23 and Firefox. I do keep the DuckDuckGo browser installed for the app tracker blocker.
Same here except for duckduckgo
Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro and Brave.
I used to like Xiaomi but nowadays, I fucking hate them.
Mine is buggy as fuck, piece of shit software. And they are taking their fucking time updating it. Not that I think that it will fix those bugs..
I need to install some different ROM, but haven't got the time to do that yet.
Yeah I've been too lazy to install a custom ROM. I do use a different launcher (KISS) and am pretty happy with the phone overall. I do get the odd random crash, and the memory management is a bit aggressive
My buggs have to do with work profile and not being able to attach pictures/files and things like that.
Samsung A52 and vivaldi
Pixel 6 with Firefox. I use the default os, as the Danish ID isn't supported on rooted devices, and you pretty much need it for everything.
Galaxy Fold 5 and Firefox
GrapheneOS (Pixel) with Mull.
LightPhone 2. It doesn’t have a web browser.
Pixel 3a with Mull.
i could also get a /e/ os phone and an Samsung Galaxy note 9 on iode os
You can now get a fairphone with /e/ os pre-installed and with aparent support, if you're thinking of gating a new one anyway. They don't ship to the americas though, and if you get it re-shipped the 5g won't work but if that's not an issue it's a good product
This is the only thing stopping me from getting a Fairphone. 🥲 I want one so badly. Having it re-shipped might just be worth it if 5g is the only pain point... we'll see.
I can't recommend /e/ os enough it feels like the mint(linux distro) of degoogled android rooms everything works out of the box
I recently mentioned I gave up my phone, but before I gave it up, it was a highly modified Samsung (I think... no specific model if it was) with no internet (by choice).
Zenfone 10. Firefox
Galaxy A51, and I switch between DuckDuckGo/Bing/Fennec
Phone:OnePlus 6. Default browser: Mull.(it's been Firefox nightly for ages bu I recently switched)
OnePlus 6T with postmarketOS, default browser for the Phosh version is Firefox but I use LibreWolf instead.
OnePlus 6 with stock Android, default browser is Chrome but I use Fennec F-Droid (mobile Firefox fork) instead.
Do you use your cell connection on the 6T + PMOS? I've got an old 5T I'd love to flash Linux onto as a primary phone but not sure how support is on the OnePlus phones
I use it a lot for data and often for texts, but calls are broken for the most part. Only works in 2G mode and sometimes the audio is broken. When ot works, it works well, but it osn't reliable. That's why I got a second SIM and am carrying an Andrpoid phone as well for now. Once calls and camera work I'll drop the Android phone again. Waydroid works pretty well for the few remaining Android apps I use.
Pixel 4a, GrapheneOS. Default is Vanadium but it damn sucks. Mull forever
Nokia 7+, unofficial LineageOS, default browser this useless Chromium wrapper, using Mull too.
Other browsers are Tor-Browser for Android. The rest is not worth using, I tried most reasonable ones
pixel 6, fennec (fork of Firefox)
iOS with Firefox as my browser.
Ungoogled pure CrDroid on some 2018 mobile. Running Firefox as main browser.
Pixel 7, Firefox. 🔥🦊
Are you me
Pixel 6 Pro, Firefox, CalyxOS
A phone actually made by a company known for making headphones. It’s called the Apple’s iPhone. Seems ok to me. The default browser is Safari and works pretty well. Weird thing about this phone is it doesn’t have a keyboard, just a picture of one on the screen. When you press the screen it can see these presses almost as if it were a real keyboard!
I think I have heard of them.
Poco F3 running with /e/OS and mull
Pixel 7a and Chrome, but I have Firefox installed with adblock installed and use it when sites get too annoying with ads.
Most of my searches and content consumption is through dedicated apps anyways.
Poco X3 Pro and I use Opera. I tried Firefox, but I didn't like it, some websites looked huge, some tiny. The manual scaling option in settings didn't help it. Opera handles scaling of desktop websites properly. It also has desktop-like tab switcher on top which I like.
Firefox mobile probably isn't optimized for tablets, which my phone basically became.
Pixel 6 Pro, stock OS, Firefox Beta.
Pixel 7 / Google Chrome
I rarely do much web browsing on mobile so that suits me fine for quick things. But if I were browsing Lemmy I'd use Tor Browser like I already do on desktop.
Why tor for lemmy?
mabye he used the same for Reddit
Galaxy S10e with Fennec. When Firefox finally supports all add-ons I'll switch back to that.
Pixel 6, Firefox
Pixel 4a, with Brave, because it gets rid of most ads.
Hello fellow S10e user! I have no idea what phone I'll get when it dies. No more small phones :(
Pixel 6 with Firefox.
Redmi Note 10 Pro (EEA), Firefox
OnePlus 5T + Brave Asus ROG Phone 6 + Brave
Brave blocks ads without any annoying plugin, it's chromium based (I've always been a bit of a fan of chrome), and it allows me to use duckduckgo for search.
I have an A54 but I don't have any browser default since I like to select it each time I launch a page (since I have Firefox and Focus on there and I use Focus as incognito browsing)
Pixel 4a running GraphineOS.
The default browser is a chrome derivative called Vanadium.
Galaxy Fold 4. The default is Samsung Internet, but the one I use is Vivaldi, which I also use on desktop.
Galaxy a52s (that s is important!), a decent phone.
has 5g/wifi6, spapdragon cpu, 120hz oled display, a headphone jack and an sd card slot (unfortunately it's combined with sim) all in a waterproof package (and battery that lasts for 7-8 hour sot with everything on). got it on sale for ~275$ and i love it.
won't bother upgrading to anything but flagships for a long time.
Running stock debloated rom atm, but may switch to something like pixel experience (support is already running out; it's just 3 years, not 5 like on newer models)
I'm using Firefox Beta with tons of extensions.
Samsung S10e With Kiwi browser so I can use extensions ,(mainly bypass paywall by Magnolia). But also have Firefox.
Poco X3 NFC (w/ Android 13 custom ROM) and my main browser is Edge with Cromite on the side.
My main browser for years and years was Firefox (both windows and mobile) but for whatever reason Firefox is super slow loading pages on my desktop (while other browsers open instantly) and I just got tired of troubleshooting the issue.. so I just switched
what custom rom
I've used so many 🤣 right now I'm using an unofficial PixelOS
uptate: I'VE OFFICIALY SWITCHED TO ICERAVEN ON MY PHONE
Samsung s20u with Firefox. I rarely use the browser though as I would rather use Firefox on my desktop instead. I mostly use apps on my phone.
Zenfone 8 with Firefox.
iPhone 15 Pro. Safari.
Poco X3 pro is a the last true flagship killer.
Nothing similar has been made since.
Unknown here. It seems that redmi is a IDM device...
I'm aware of that, I was just saying this particular one seems to only pop up in Indian price.
It doesn't default to Samsung Internet?
i changed it
