Yes.
Short term -- I'll probably be moving to LibreWolf, most likely. I'm planning to spend a good chunk of time this weekend reviewing what exactly their fork does. I've read their self-description already -- and like it -- but I want to look through the code and try to build it myself before I start depending on it.
Long term -- I'll be keeping my eye on Servo and Ladybird.
I'm staying on this side, but probably switching to a fork like Librewolf
I've previously used Floorp which is feature rich but not polished, and same goes for Zen
I've heard that librewolf struggles to keep up to date with important security updates iirc? That is pretty much the only thing holding me from using it permanently.
Seeing a lot of people recommend the same three forks, though. I'll have to try them out and see what i like best :D
Well, I have been using Zen, a Firefox fork for the past 6 months, and they have yet to clarify their stance on the ToS update.
Anyway, I don't think I'll change anyway, we need Gecko in the browser engine landscape and I have been so used to Firefox'S UI and flexibility that I have a hard time imagining myself not using a Firefox-based browser.
I've tried every now and then but could never switch to firefox fully. It was either big ram usage, slowness, or the inability to handle more than 2 tabs. On android. On pc its just the first 2.
Cromite.
Not yet, they're still the best option that doesn't use Chromium (I don't count Safari), but Servo is looking pretty promising
I honestly have no clue, personally.
I know i have to jump ship, but my choices are either chromium, or a fork of firefox, that may be slow to catch up with security / may not last.
I've got my eyes on librewolf, floorp and zen.
I'm especially watching https://ladybird.org/. A completely independent browser. But the dev has gotten himself in hot water iirc, but anything to get away from google and mozilla, i guess. Also, it's not complete.
We'll see what the future has in stock for us.
I’ve been using gnome web for a bit
Yep, switched tot waterfox...
Already switched to Zen on PC and Fennec on Android.
I'm going to stick to Firefox for the time being at least for the clients where I managed to get Firefox ESR accepted. For everything else, it might be the time to switch to Librewolf. Among other advantages, they have enabled jxl support.
Coincidentally, I just found out about Floorp yesterday, in no relation to this ToS change, and will take a look at it soon. Keep in mind I haven't looked at all yet, so I have no clue if they have a worse ToS or something.
Switching from Android to iPhone soon, what is the best browser for the iPhone? 🤔
Very interested in responses, following.
