I came across this weird scenario where I needed to use Orbot but Vanadium couldn't use the Proxy (yes, I run it as a proxy) because there is no settings for it, why it was removed?

    afaik that is a chrome thing. if you go to chrome you don't have proxy settings it uses the system proxy settings. unlike firefox which has its own proxy settings.

    Than you both.
    This is a big disappointment, now I'm forced to install another browser, probably Firefox from weird sources.

      r134a My bad, u probably shouldn't download it from github as i failed to see it is archived as read-only and last version on github available is 110.0.1, while currently 127.0 is the latest version.

      If u are looking for a gecko based browser, while avoiding play store, i would suggest https://f-droid.org/packages/us.spotco.fennec_dos/

          I faced the same problem. My summary opinion:
          -- if u wanna chromium-based, use Chromite (ex bromite). Because it don't has built-in "news, vpn, ai, partner programs, ipfs, etc".

          -- if u wanna gecko-based, Waterfox the best choice. No telemetry, no integration. Present in GP.

          For gecko-based foxyproxy more stable solution. Based on my experience.

            Object_11 Thank you, but I need to see what you're talking about :D .

            r134a in theory I can add all I need in Obtanium, but it's simply a long process if you have many apps, and I always hope that the backup will work one day...

                steve66th It wasn't removed. It's not supported by the standard mobile Chromium UI and using a VPN for a profile is strongly encouraged. Have you considered using a work profile with Tor enabled, which you can replace with a Private Space in Android 15? This will help avoid leaks.

                  steve66th Object_11 Firefox is a far less secure browser with barely any hardening and no sandbox on mobile, not even a content sandbox let alone site isolation. Cromite is much less secure than Vanadium and reduces security more than it improves it.

                        Thank you for your reply, however, I have carefully studied the FAQ section from your site. Yes, I know about the problems of the gecko engine and Firefox in general. But I also don't think it's a good idea to let all my traffic (including mail and messengers) through a third-party VPN provider, no matter how reliable it is. Yes, of course, you can configure a VPN application and run only the browser through it, but what's the point if there is a wonderful solution for this - a true https proxy? Why do we need userspace-level applications (wireguard), which will also work with application exceptions (in terms traffic routing) if all the work can be transferred to a remote proxy server? Yes, we have an IKEv2 at the seystemspace level working. It is not configurable and wraps the traffic entirely, as well as the system does not understand the carrier in this case (with this configuration, the system cannot determine whether it is on wifi or on mobile data). This is also critical for me.
                        So, my solution - working with firefox and foxyproxy, with noScript, with uBlock, and less tabs (1-3). And clear all data 4-5 times during day.
