Are there any other browsers you could recommend apart from Vivaldi and LibreWolf that don't have any AI crap added to them?

I use Lynx for most things and Floorp if I need to use a graphics based service. I'm an edge case (ie very weird) so look into Floorp if you don't like LibreWolf.

Pretty much every Firefox-fork I suppose. What's wrong with LibreWolf?

[–] cinnamon@lemmy.cafe 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Nothing! I already use it on my desktop but just wanted to know if there are other good browsers out there :)

[–] SolarPunker@slrpnk.net 5 points 6 days ago

Oh! Browsers are in a bad era right now, hard to develop and with very little differentiation. Libre Wolf is one of the most (if not the most) supported Firefox-fork. Would be really nice to see - for example in the future - an intense development on Falkon by the KDE team.

+1, the one I'm using (Vivaldi being my second & chromium-based browser).

Basically, Waterfox is not as hardocore bonkers about trying to perfect security as like, IronFox, but it strips a bunch of more recent BS out of Firefox, does a good deal of automatic LibreWolf type ecurity oriented tweaks... I don't think its configured to do DoH only by default, but its like 3 or 4 ciicks in the settings menu to do that... and its got more of a focus on usability.

Just recently got an update for like, vertically stacked tabs in a group, or something?

Sounds neat, I haven't futzed with that particular thing yet tho, but it does seem neat.

Thank you! I already use it, was just curious what else is out there :)

[–] nymnympseudonym@piefed.social 2 points 6 days ago

doh I failed to read you put that in the title itself

[–] gwl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Same question, but for Android Mobile?

Ooh nice, will look it up

[–] ulterno@programming.dev 1 points 6 days ago

There's Falkon, which afaik, doesn't have LLM stuff.
And then you always have Dillo.

[–] cram@piefed.world 1 points 6 days ago

Degoogled chromium on pc, and Vanadium on phone.

Tons will let you disable AI, or make it opt-in. Only a small few don't have any AI features. I think Vivaldi and Orion (which is only on Mac/iOS, in alpha for Linux) don't appear to have any browser-based AI.
