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 youβre 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.

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 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.

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.
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.

S23 and Firefox. I do keep the DuckDuckGo browser installed for the app tracker blocker.
Same here except for duckduckgo
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
LightPhone 2. It doesnβt have a web browser.
Samsung A52 and vivaldi
Galaxy Fold 5 and Firefox
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. π₯² I want one so badly. Having it re-shipped might just be worth it if 5g is the only pain point... we'll see.

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.
Pixel 3a with Mull.
GrapheneOS (Pixel) with Mull.
iOS with Firefox as my browser.
Galaxy A51, and I switch between DuckDuckGo/Bing/Fennec
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.
A phone actually made by a company known for making headphones. Itβs called the Appleβs iPhone. Seems ok to me. The default browser is Safari and works pretty well. Weird thing about this phone is it doesnβt 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.
Phone:OnePlus 6. Default browser: Mull.(it's been Firefox nightly for ages bu I recently switched)
pixel 6, fennec (fork of Firefox)
Pixel 4a, with Brave, because it gets rid of most ads.
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.
Fairphone 3 / Lineage with Privacy Browser and Fennec
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
