Out of the box, Brave has the best defaults when it comes to decent privacy (disclaimer: privacytests.org is made by a Brave developer, but provides good insights into measures that browsers can take for increased privacy).
Firefox needs a lot of tweaking (https://ffprofile.com [watch out, it may set network.cookie.cookieBehavior
to 1
, while the reasoanble default is 5
] or even https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js). Using uBlock Origin is a must on Firefox imho, but can also improve the experience on Brave (as long as it supports Manifest v2), especially with the Medium mode, and due to its uncloaking of CNAMEs.
As such, I'd recommend using:
- Brave if you don't want to dive into settings, optionally with uBlock Origin
- Mullvad Browser to get a Firefox setup as close to Tor Browser aas possible but for daily use
- Or LibreWolf to not have a commercial company behind the browser you use and one that basically adheres to the same ideals of Mullvad Browser
Edit: Great, I was 4 minutes late, I guess this is now a +1 for @manugraph and some useful links 😛
