EDIIT :

Apparently, there is an issue with the warning request to disable the ad blocker

I use Fennec F-Droid and Cromite, and I don't see this issue.

to get around the adblocker warning, use this link.

    it's my default browser on mobile. only after using it did i realize that i rarely need data stored, be it cookies or history. go to a site, read whatever, press the flame button to burn the session. for sites you want to keep you can "fireproof" them as well. ezpz
