As Google gives you the choice to opt out of cookie tracking, it silently starts collecting your online habits with fingerprinting.

        I went back to Fennec. We’ll see if a fork survives long term.

        I just want Firefox on F-Droid, and Fennec has been that for years. I only switched because I got a new phone and figured I’d try Mull.

      For mobile, yes, development stopped.

      However, Mullvad (from the actual VPN folk) for desktop still exists.

      https://mullvad.net/en/browser

          That’s why I said (from the actual vpn folk)

          The two were often conflated because “mull” in the name. They also used many of the same resources for the prefs.js and other tweaks. (Arkenfox, tor uplift, etc)
